Day Before Surgery
Dec 13, 2011
12/13/2011Well as many of you can imagine I am jittery today and nervous. It took so long to get here with the required 6months of doctor supervised dieting and then all the tests required by my surgeon. Of course I had read all the nightmare stories on the web as well as a couple of friends who have friends or family members that wish they never had done it. Then I found this site and realized that yes sometimes people have negative experiences but the majority agree that this was the best thing they have ever done for themselves. So.... here's to ME! I will begin a new journey tomorrow morning.
I do worry about the depression I hear about as people "Divorce" their food. That is the part that I am most apprehensive about. I mean most of us who have gotten to this point have done it by making food our best friend, psychologist, lover, and nemesis. I have no dillusions that this is going to be the hardest thing I have ever done, but the best thing I can do for my health and my family.
I will check back in after surgery and recovery.
