Topic: RE: So tomorrow's the big day.
I am 15 weeks out and my surgery went great. I did get really nervous as I was waiting to go into surgery. I wish you the best of luck and just have trust in yourself, your body, and your doctor. Just remember that you fall asleep and it feels like you wake up quickly. I was so drugged up that I didn't even notice pain. I had my surgery on Monday, home on wednesday, and was out at the movie theatre on Friday. I know that it's easier said than done, but try to relax and have some faith.

I had my RNY on 6/1 also. I'm starving on this liquid diet and counting down to Tuesday when I get to move on to soft protein... ;)

I'm sorry I can't be of any help to you. I feel very anxious myself! TOMORROW!!!
I am trusting Jesus to get me through this. My family is praying. My church is praying. That is the only way I am able to cope. Besides being anxious, I am terribly EXCITED!! I know that sounds weird. We'll be in pain and all that, but I am so excited to have a chance to get rid of this fat. I'm praying for you.
We'll get through this and be losing in no time!!!

And I am so freaking nervous
I've only had one surgery in my life..... and I do NOT have pleasant memories of it. I remember being miserable and in pain. Of course, that was for a broken leg, so hopefully it's different tomorrow
I'm scared. Despite all the books I've read, the videos I've watched, the seminars I've attended, the surgeons I've interviewed (I met with 3 or 4 before I decided on one I felt confident in)...... despite ALL the hard work I put into getting approved- the testing, the counseling, the dieting, the paperwork, etc...etc...etc.... despite it all..... I'm starting to get cold feet.
I feel ****** up in the head from being so anxious. I'm scared. I hate hospitals, I hate having IVs, I hate being in pane.... I'm afraid that they're gonn **** up and give me painkillers that I'm allergic to again..... I'm afraid that something might go wrong.... I'm afraid that I'm going to have complications...
Can someone slap me out of this please? I know I'm being ridiculous. I'm just... nervous.
