8 days and counting

Getting freaked out.I think I am more worried about after and if I will get sick.Also very excited too.Any good tips?

Hi Cindy, This is the most exciting and terrifying time you will have. I remember the days before my surgery and I was feeling all of the normal "freaking out" emotions you are feeling now. I just thought about how good I would feel and that I finally would be "normal" instead of "queen size". I knew I had made the right decision, and just prayed a lot. I didn't get sick and did what my Dr. said. That's all. Just do what they say and take things one day at a time. I have a lot of friends who have had the surgery and that was their advice to me. Remember, it gets better every day. Keep us posted. Jackie
