Youre in NY now right?
I can recommend a wonderful Bariatric team for you in Manhattan who have an entire floor at one of the best hospitals in NY.
They will work with you to immediately get insurance approval and will do everything your insurance requires counseling, blood test, heart test wise on site and quickly. Dr. Parikh the head surgeon has over 15 years daily experience and he did an amazing job on me both with the surgery but particularly with caring followup.
Every six months I receive a text that its time for my blood draw and the detailed results are painstakingly explained to me and vitamins prescribed if i need them.
In addition the team helps qualify their patients for panniculectomies , medically necessary skin removal sand lymphodema treatment without insurance complications and again in the safest and best hospital without copays if at all possible
After weight loss surgery, I got rid of my depressive state. My mental and emotional health finally normalized. In addition to my physical health problems, being overweight harmed my self-esteem, social standing, and thoughts in general. Owning a new body, I found mental peace. In addition, I decided to get a dog to normalize my psychological state. It is scientifically proven that animals help cope with a heavy mental state. At esaregistration.org, I found answers to many questions concerning such animals. They are salvation for many people who think there is no way out.
It is not a problem to take the pills after the operation; the only thing you should be concerned about is compatibility with the medical preparations you?ll be taking after the operation (if you?ll need them). However, you have nothing to worry about if you have talked about this with a doctor, and he said it would be okay. Talking about protein shakes, the same situation.
You should probably be more nervous about what might happen if you don't have the surgery. It's a lot higher risk to your family.
One thing the nurse told me before I had my surgery that stuck with me ~ All patients are nervous and results vary, but in her 20 years of working in the field, no one has ever asked for the fat back.
Mortality rate on RNY is 0.3%. It's even lower on sleeve (I can't remember exactly what it was since I was an RNY patient, but i do remember it was lower). That means you have a 99.7% or better chance of not dying on the table. And you won't. A common fear, but it almost never happens. You have a much greater chance of dying of an obesity-related complication than you do not making it through bariatric surgery.

Do not think of food all day. Then you want to indulge in eating food. You need to start a gym, swimming, it is really good to meditate and keep a long book of your activities so you will know what area you need to work on the most. I hope this help... Best of wishes you can do this!!!!
I revised my will and final arrangements before surgery. After surgery I felt great and was back to work six days later. I always prepare for the worst outcome and then go ahead with my plans and hope for the best outcome.

Real life begins where your comfort zone ends
I dont know why have nervous and Fear of weight loss surgery I guess one could be I'm afraid what might happen to my children if I don't make through surgery, a other reason is weight over 500 lbs might I might not handle surgery well.
Please don't compare yourself with other people. It's your journey, nor someone elses.
