Fear!!

[bariutiful 72]

I think it’s very normal to feel fear. Before surgery I would fear of dying on the table or from a leak, infection, or complication. But I kept telling myself that it’s more pron for me to die from obesity than the surgery itself. The day of surgery I was nervous but extremely excited.. don’t worry you will do great! Best decision I have ever made for myself and I’m so happy with it all 😁

Did they give you anything the day of surgery to make you feel more relaxed?

No they didn’t, but what I did tell one of the nurses that was going to be with me in surgery how I was scared and she was the nicest person ever! She really calmed me down and made me feel safe.. when I got to the table everyone in there were so friendly and were super talkative I thought they were just getting things ready but they were really distracting me and next thing you know I woke up from surgery, I didn’t even realize when they put me to sleep

A little fear, a little disquieted, that's cool, Just don't let Fear tuck you into his hind picket and keep you there. You were not made to be Fearful but Victorious, remember that and you will make IT so!

I was feeling the same exact thing before my surgery. Thankfully everything went well. I'm sure it will go well for you too! 😄

Feel the fear and do it anyway. That’s how I get through those moments. I’m sure you will be fine x
