Anybody else out there nervous as hell? Not long now at all now. I know I need to just relax and breath, but my stomach is in knots . Any words of encouragemjent would be much appreciated. alena

Alena- Hey, I am worried about about how nervous I will be the last day or so. I just order some surgery meditation tapes. I hope they will help. I say spend the day doing something not thinking about surgery. Or spend the day writing a list of all the things you want to do when your weight is much lower! I feel for you. I will pray for some calm and peace for you. And for your surgeons hands to be steady! And for a quick recovery!!!!! I know I will be nervous too! Hang in there! Linda

Alena I tried to think about the other things that will fulfill my life after the surgery and blah blah blah.......thats bs I was scared, I was crying....I was about ready to take off everybody's head. Then they gave me the happy drugs and honestly I dont remember anything. I remember going into the OR but I was like obident dog - yes ma'am - no ma'am. I woke up and it was over..... It will be ok....all our thoughts and prayers are with you!!! Take it easy!!! Jenn
