I think we were all nervous about having surgery. I am 3 weeks out and the first week was the hardest. Now the only thing that's hard is changing my email eating habits. You've got this. You will be so glad you had it done. You deserve it. Good luck and keep us posted :)

My appointment is tomorrow too. So scared but also just wanting to move on in the journey. I am afraid of failure.

Congrats on your date mine is Oct. 27th so it's great to find fellow Oct VSG surgery warriors who's journey I can follow.I'm definitely in that nervous/anxious stage. I start my 2 week pre surgery 1,000 calorie diet next Tues. and have mandatory nutrition course next Friday. Eek definitely battling the nerves but this is what we've been working for and moving towards. So, to all my fellow October surgi sisters (& brothers) positive thoughts & prayers as we get ready to join the losers bench.

Thanks for posting, it's good to not feel like I'm on an island in all this!

We will make it! We can do this! It's ok that we are nervous... That means we are human!

I have surgery date of 10-19 and am nervous too. When the nerves come on I take a moment and tell myself to remember why I am doing this. I try to visualize my granddaughter and then myself thinner, etc. Meditation and visualizing has helped me. I am so scared. I appreciate everyone's words of encouragement!

Yes! I like the idea of the October, 15 club :) it's just nice to hear from ppl going through the exact same stage as you. I also like to hear from the "veterans" and see what advice they have to offer...
