I had lot of pain and discomfort but they say a lot from air I guess they pump in during surgery. Next full day I was 100% better just real tired and little pain but well worth the trip! Keep the faith! Thanks! I hope that I am that lucky. 1 Schwarz64 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m not sure that I want to get surgery anymore Good luck with yours. I travel to Sydney tomorrow for my surgery as I live 3.5 hours away from the hospital and I need to be there early the next morning. All the normal feelings both worried and happy. I hope I have the commitment to follow though with this lifestyle change the fear of failing is quite strong at the moment. Again I am sure these are just normal feeling. I love how supported everyone has been and thank you all for sharing your journeys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Again I am sure these are just normal feeling. I love how supported everyone has been and thank you all for sharing your journeys.No one can tell anyone what to do in there journey but I know I had same feelings. It seemed all the months leading up I was super motivated but when I got down to last week it seemed everything changed. My last week every day had second thoughts and even sitting waiting day of still second thoughts. Myself did go through with surgery and one week out no regrets. Ultimately it’s your body you have to make choice but I know I made right one. Keep the faith! 1 Schwarz64 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

From reading this board, I've learned that nearly everyone has doubts/misgivings about the surgery immediately before and after, which isn't surprising. The 2 weeks before and month after are pretty rough! Its big decision for sure, and one that only you can make. And if you chose to cancel, you can always change your mind later.

It's a big decision and one many of have struggled with for years before we get here. Giving up what may be our only real coping mechanism can feel like finally cutting ties with a friend or a lover who may never have meant you any harm but certainly didn't mean you any good either. Its hard, it takes commitment, but you come out the other side stronger for it. You are the only one who knows when you've had enough, and that's when you're ready. It's OK not to be ready yet. 1 Apple203 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
