is it weird?????

Hey sylvia, We have the same date, and I am more anxious than anything. I have kind of this numbness thing going on with me. It like when someone finds out that they've won the lottery and immediately feel like this must be a dream. And if it is I just want keep sleeping, because I want, no need this sooooo bad. I'm just hoping I don't freak out at the last minute. jadenedjewel

My Surgery is Aug 1--sometimes I think it will never come-I have mixed feeling also, but it is exciting!

Hi Pj, my surgery is also August 1st! I feel like it will be a new month, a new week and the beginning of a new life! I'm nervous of course, but also VERY excited! I am struggling between being optimistic and being real, but everyone tells me to just relax and take advantage of this amazing opportunity. I can't help but fear a little bit that it won't work for me or that my probable excess skin problem will make me depressed, but in the end, it is for my health and I need to remember that. I suppose it is simply hard to believe it is all real and that THIS time WILL be different!!!
