Being a drama queen or not?

Theres is no question in my mind that I'm ready for this surgery. I have struggled all my life with my weight. But since my surgery is this Tuesday I am now starting to get extremely nervous and these questions are going threw my head like why did I let myself get this bad stuff like that. I feel like I mite have a panic attack since I already worry about everything.

I think your pre-op jitters are normal. I too got very nervous but I knew that this was the right thing for me...so I kept my eye on the prize and was ready to have it done.  The last thing I remember saying to my surgeon on the operating table before they put me out was..I am ready!.  Think of the great journey ahead of you ,, the reasons that you are doing this and keep your eye on the prize too!

good luck

I completely understand the jitters and beating yourself up about gaining weight and needing this surgery to begin with.  Tuesday will be my 2 week post-op mark and I still second guess my decision to have the surgery, but my mantra to myself is still the same...Its better than the alternative!  We have all tried the diets, gaining and losing with the same results.  This is a great tool to have on your side, have faith in yourself and you will do great!  My prayers are with you for a safe surgery and speedy recovery!

dear jerseygirl05...you look awfully familiar hahahah

 

no but seriously a. you are gonna give yourself more ulcers. b. i thought the same thing days before my surgery and i thought why??? maybe i can do one last diet...nope...i knew i needed forced behavior modification. although im a slow loser and i dont follow all of the rules but most...im still loving my sleeve. there is no way id be at the size i am now wiht just diet/exercise..i woulda gained it all back by now. you know in your case its beyond the weight..its become the ulcer/tumor issue so you dont have a choice but to save your life. and i would miss you. also i will be walking your obese ass around the hospital no questions asked on tues. i love you girl and as scared as i was and as scared as u are..trust me when i say a few months from today you will be screaming  I LOVE MY EFFIN SLEEVE!! see ya at work tomorrow hooker.

Aww thank you! You made me cry jackass. Don't miss me to much at work.

I was an absolute basket case pre-op. OMG, I Was sobbing so bad when the doctor came in prior to my surgery....it was baaadddd....


Im not gonna lie. The first couple days were rough, but now, I am feeling so much better (its only been 4 days) and I am so excited to see my own progress =) Best of luck to you!!!

Thank you so much for all the surport! I'm doing pretty well today just can't wait for it to be over now.
