You will all be with me!
I feel that as I approach my surgery on Tuesday, I am taking the support and encouragement of all the people in this forum with me. I got so many words of faith and encouragement at church this morning. My support group was fantastic on Thursday night. And there are all these people who don't even know me, but understand where I am and what I am going through.
There is some anxiety in there, but the overriding emotion is excitement as I approach a completely new phase in my life. I have hope for my health. I am beginning an new adventure. I know everything is not going to be perfect. But I am confident that my surgery will go well and that I have all the support I need to cope with the ups and downs.
Thanks to ObesityHelp.com and all the lovely people for being there for me.
I am counting the hours.

HI Diane
I feel as you do, many emotions, some anxiety but more excitement than anything. I, too, had to have a hysterectomy for the same reason as you (11 years ago) and have back problems that keep me from being able to walk any distance, or to stand for any length of time. And sitting all day at work is no easier.
I am glad you have such great support and I know you are looking forward to becoming healthier and more mobile. I wish you all the best with your surgery and recovery. You will be in my thoughts! ~ Lisa
