Sooo Spanx aren't really that bad...

I am sitting here typing this post knowing that I have to wake up at 4:00am to get to the airport to fly to San Antonio to be picked up for surgery tomorrow. I can't help but wonder "What the hellfire am I doing...?".  Night after night I read all of the posts here of scared nervous folks going in for surgery.  I have heard all of the positive and reassuring messages and felt good with the decision I have made.  I just cannot believe it has come to this.  The "What if's..." are filling my mind .....

Speedy recovery and get back on here and tell us all about it :)

Best wishes. . .

Just my thought process: if the word "THAT" is used, then it's never a good situation. I.E. "his penis wasn't that small"! ! !

See what I mean? ? ? you'll do great, enjoy your flight, breathe in and out.

Be ready to ditch those spanx! And run around all skinny and nude. Beats being all covered and restricted.

Yay for VSG!

 I live in San Antonio and my surgery date is June 21st. I'm so thankful to be able to do this for myself, but I'm sure on June 20the I'll be feeling the same thing as you. Have a great trip to San Antonio and speedy recovery! 

Good luck with the surgery. You're going to fall in love with your sleeve.

Oh and I love my Spanx. The more I lose, the more I need them.

I was just down there to have my surgery with Dr. Alvarez on May 31st. He has an amazing staff that are all very supportive. Anything that you could possibly need while you're in the hospital, they'll take care of for you. Any questions you have will be answered. Don't worry, you're in good hands.

You'll do fine, good luck and let us know how it goes.

Squeeze yourself, Rosie, and Dr. A for me!  I will be thinking of you!!

I'll tell you what the hellfire you are doing.....you are doing the best thing you can do for yourself!!!!

I had the same freak-out/panic/second guessing/anxiety attack on Tuesday afternoon before I flew out on Wednesday for my Thursday surgery  (do ya see the similarity in the timeframe here?).  You are having a normal reaction.

So put on your big girl panties and go for it!  You will be so glad you did.
