Hi Marsha, I am set to have surgery on the 11th also. I am scared too. I know that the surgery is necessary because I know I can't live long at my current weight. I will say a prayer for you. Just think we're getting our Christmas wishes a few weeks early.

Hi Marsha OMG my surgery is the 11th too. I'm having it done at Barix Clinic in Yspilanti Michigan, where are you having it. Best wishes and try to stay calm..................

My surgery is the 11th too. I just got back from the hospital where I had to do my pre admin testing. I am nervous when I think about it so I try not to. It is nice to see others that are having surgery the same day as me......((hugs))

Im having mine done in Pittsburgh PA......

Marsha, You're going to do GREAT! I'm just home yesterday and all is well. Do what your surgeon tells you and you will be fine! Make sure that you manage your pain in the hospital and when you get home. take care! dawn

Hi! I am December 11th also. I was very confident until today. I went to the hospital for the preadmission testing and I had to wait near the recovery room for the anesthesiologist. It was then that I remembered what it is like to be so vulnerable and at the mercy of the staff. I've had several surgeries in the last few years, so I thought it would be easy......then I remembered the feelings. It is a big deal but it is also a surgery with a wonderful outcome! I am nervous but I'm also thrilled! Good Luck to everyone! This is a brave step to take!
