I just became a member tonight so I am failry new to all of this.  My date was set last week and I am set to have my gastric bypass on Friday.  I am starting to get really nervous and can't seem to quiet my thoughts about it.  Is there anyone out there that has some good tips on how to get through this?  I am ready for the commitment after surgery...it's just walking through those doors I seem to have an issue with right now....is this normal?

It's perfectly normal to be nervous.  Take it one day at a time.  You'll have it all behind you before you know it!

Thank you very much for the reassurance!  I appreciate that.

Congratulations on getting your date! 

Thank you very much!  I see you are set the same day as one of my good friends!  Congrats are in order for you as well

Nerves are perfectly normal.  You'll be just fine! I am having surgery on the same day at 9:30 am! Good luck to you!

Thank you! I sure hope things go well for all of us here. But I have to admit that I broke down and cried so much tonight!  But I got over that in about ten minutes LOL.  Well, I wish the best of luck to you as well  Hopefully chat with you again soon! 

I am tomorrow at 8:30. I know it sounds crazy but I just cannot wait to be under and not have to worry about anything anymore! Then I will know there's no more changing my mind...going back and forth and the rest of my life will begin!
