I CHICKENED OUT

THANK YOU.  I GUESS IT'S JUST BEEN A TOUGH WEEK.  LOTS OF PERSONAL STUFF GOING ON.  THANKS FOR THE ENCOURAGEMENT, I REALLY APPRECIATE IT.

Awhhh Tess!

What happened? Sorry to hear you were having second thoughts! Try calling Sisters early this morning, They called me on a Sunday to schedule my pre-ops.
My pre-ops are Monday @ 12:45, maybe I will see you there?

I CALLED SISTERS AND THEY SAID IF I WANTED TO HAVE MY PRE-OPS CLOSER TO HOME THAT WAS NO PROBLEM.  SO I AM GOING TO CALL DR. C'S OFFICE ON MONDAY TO SEE IF I CAN DO IT HERE.  THANKS FOR THE RESPONSE.  DO GOOD MONDAY.

its normal to be nervouhs  just think to yourself what you want more b eing heavy and not being  ablee to do anything or starting a wonderful journey...... pre op is nothing but a precausion...... ftor me it was a no brainer if they told me to stand on my head and do backflips i would have.... its all a personal desicion.... and its all up to you just think next year you will be shopping for a bikini...... keep looking at peoples before and afters that was my motivation...... good luck and god bless Stacy

I HONESTLY THINK IT HAD A LOT TO DO WITH THE FACT THAT PRE-OPS IS ON THE 5TH FLOOR AND I DON'T LIKE ELEVATORS.  NO BIKINIS FOR THIS OLD LADY.  LOL  MONDAY IS A NEW DAY.  THANKS FOR THE RESPONSE.

ok then we will take it slow    SMALLER CLOTHES AND A HEALTHIER LIFESTYLE..... you can do it !!!!!!!  this time next year you'll be taking the stairs Stacy

NOW THAT I CAN REALLY GET MY MIND AROUND.  THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE SUPPORT.  IT'S BEEN AMAZING.

First off, don't be embarrassed about this. It's a huge decision and if you are not sure, then it's better not to go through with it until you are sure.  It's going to change your body so it's not something to take lightly. If it's because you're scared, pray over it or ask someone to go with you if possible, to hold your hand. 

I hope if you really want this you can get your pre-op done Monday and it should all work out.

I wish you well. For me, it has changed my life 1000-fold.  I also had back pain and now I walk almost 6 miles a day at least 4 - 6 times a week.  I am wearing sizes I haven't worn in over 20 years.  In a nutshell, I got my life back again. Take care, Sue

IT IS A VERY BIG DECISION.  SO IS LETTING MYSELF DIE SLOWLY.  I JUST GOT A LITTLE NUTSY THAT DAY.  I'M GOING TO CALL MONDAY TO GET THEM DONE.  THANKS FOR THE RESPONSE.

No prob, good luck and let us know how things go. Take care, Sue
