Getting Nervous...

Hi all!! I know that it has been a while since I have posted, but just wanted to let everyone know that I am scheduled for surgery on Feb 15. Dr. Moran is my surgeon. Tommorrow I go see him for the "results" visit and to discuss what expect next week. Im getting more and more nervous as the days go by. Is that normal?

Hi Anya, I'm in your same boat as well I'm scheduled for surgery at Durham Regional with the dukew eight loss clinic on Feb 8th, just a few short days away. And believe me I have been nervous since I went to pre-op last Friday. So to answer your question....YES it's normal. Have a wonderful night

Anya, Congratulations on getting a date. That's great. I can't imagine anyone NOT being nervous. It's a big deal with big changes. Just focus on why you are doing this in the first place, discuss concerns with your surgeon and keep imagining how you are going to feel when those scales start to lower. Best wishes, Karen

Nervous? Try panicking! My anesthesiologist told me yesterday he would have to put the breathing tube in while I'm awake. Then today my mom is saying, "I just don't think you REALLY tried dieting on your own. Why don't you REALLY try weigh****chers for a while ...blah blah blah". My surgery is Monday at 10am. When fear begins to overwhelm me, I just remind myself that a year from now when I'm skinny and gorgeous I'll go out to celebrate my skinny gorgeousness and be forever thankful I had the guts to go through with this. Anyone else up for a Skinny Gorgeousness party in Feb. 2008?

I think something would be wrong with you if you werent nervous. My surgery is in 14 hours. Let me tell you about REALLY being nervous.
