Elizabeth, Hang in there! I have four weeks to go and am feeling the same, scared, excited, terrified. I am thankful that I have a very busy month ahead of me with a class reunion, son's birthday, etc. Thank God for Mom's. Lynne

were all scared but you will do fine and so will the rest of us i have 23 days and counting. can't wait to see you on the loosing side good luck

My surgery is for the same day as yours. I don't feel scared yet, maybe because mine is out of town and I am furiously trying to get everything ready. At least your mom supports you! We will hang in there together. Most of my friends think this surgery is too drastic. That's ok because I'm still having it. You'll do fine.

Hi Elizabeth, Looks like we are surgery sisters! I am having the same feeling you are... I feel like all I can do is look up information, talk to people who have had the surgery, and read more about what I can expect. I am sure my friends are sick of me talking about it... but its all I can think about! If you need anyone to talk to, send me an email, and I would be more than happy to chat with you... All the BEST! Bridget

Elizabeth, My surgery is the same date as yours. I'm not as scared as I was, now that I've decided to have the lap band instead of the RNY. I'm just worrying now that it won't work as well. I was kind of counting on the dumping since I do have a sweet tooth.
