I would be trying to remind myself that what I personally would be deathly afraid of is not surgery (its a relatively quick and safe procedure) but the change in lifestyle afterwards. Never again will I be able to really pig out on McDonalds, that type of thing. In realising that, it made me realise that I never can again anyway if I want to look and feel a certain way, so perhaps try to remind yourself that what the band is going to FORCE you to do, you really have to do anyway. I think its probably that journey many are afraid of, not the procedure itself, and there's no way not to make that scary. Try not to project that fear onto your actual surgery.

Isnt it amazing when you take the time to actually taste your food, that most of that stuff is truly revolting. That ring of grease around your mouth feeling, bleuch. You can ignore that when you've wolfed down your fish and chips in 2 seconds flat, but not when you take the time to eat it properly - I find my appetite for it diminishes mighty quickly.
