Surgery date coming up quick!

My surgery date is September 30, 2003. I am starting to get a little nervous. Part of me knows that everything will be ok, but the other part is scared stiff. My husband just had his surgery on September 9, 2003 and he is doing great. He didn't have any complications, but with my luck I will. I am looking forward to the losing weight part, but I hope I am ready for the challenge, since I am a food addict. Food addiction is the one thing that both me and my husband have, and I watch him struggle everyday since the surgery, not with hunger, but with the want for food. I am hoping with us both having the surgery so close together, we will be able to be strong for each other. I am hoping this web site will also be a good support system for us. Heather

My surgery is 09/29/03 and I also worry about my food addiction. My strength is the knowledge I will be healthier and able to do more with the grandchildren. Have faith that your surgery will go well. It is very important to the doctors and hospital staff you have a successfull outcome. They will do everything they can to guarantee you do fine. I have faith I will be fine because only the good die young and I don't qualify as good. hehe Cindy
