....Let the journey begin....

Oh my god!!...I cannot believe that my surgery date is coming up soon.....I just need some good feedback about the whole process!!!! My surgery date is Nov 14, 07!!!! I am thrilled, excited and nervous....all in one!!!! Thanks....g.

Well, I can't give you any personal feedback on the actual surgery as I haven't been through it yet (scheduled for 11/27) but what I can say is just remember why you decided to have WLS. I suspect some of your reasons are similar to mine - get healthy, feel better, be able to enjoy trips (like to NYC) without getting winded or tired so easily... Once you get to the hospital I'm sure things will go so quickly that you won't have time to worry about it. And then when you wake up, it will be over and you'll be that much further on the road to that thinner, healthier you!! I do think the whole range of emotions is normal - this is a huge step! But the end result will be great! Hang in there!! Send me a personal message if you want to chat more as I'd be more than happy to do that. Take care and let me know how things go for you! Nancy

:-) Thank you for your reply....I will be in touch after the surgery as well..... I am enjoying the website...lots of info... Take care and God bless!!! g.
