MeganMatters 1 Posted July 10, 2008 I received my date today! I'm still in shock. A very weird happy/freaking out place. I am sooo excited, but there is apart of me that is scared to death. I'm a bouncing emotional weirdo!! I had to share! Here's to a new Megan!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barbiek 0 Posted July 10, 2008 (edited) Hey Megan, I know EXACTLY how you feel. Once they called me with the surgery date, I freaked out. I was fine for the 9 months of all the pre-op stuff, but the minute they called me to give me a date, I had so many mixed emotions ("am i doing the right thing?", scared to death, what if something happens to me, and excitement as well). Mostly scared up until my July 2 surgery. Once I had surgery, and realized I was alive, then the excitement really kicked in for me. I am now 7 days post op, feeling good, and am down 9.5 lbs (woo hoo!). You will have no regrets. Stay positive and just keep remembering your goal. It will get you through and you will do fine. Good Luck to you! Edited July 10, 2008 by Barbiek Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MeganMatters 1 Posted July 10, 2008 Thank you so much for your kind words. I've calmed down a bit. Now I want to focus on getting my house ready for resting. 15 days and counting. ahhhhhhhhh Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Barbiek 0 Posted July 10, 2008 Your welcome Megan, And make sure you get plenty of rest. I went back to work 6 days after surgery, and although I have a desk job, it was too soon. I needed another day or two of rest. I am doing good now. I'll be sending good thoughts your way! Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
