Getting very nervious

My surgery date is March 2nd, and people are tell me not to have the surgery because I will get to small, I'm what they consider light weight, I'm 57 and 230 pounds.  Is anyone that was considered a light weight and had the surgery, I'm curious to see the progress.

Check out the Lightweights Forum -- congratulations on your upcoming surgery date.

YEA I FEEL YOU ON THAT , I WOULDNT CONSIDER MYSELF A LIGHT WEIGHT BUT I HAVE SINCE LOST 40PDS WHICH MAKES ME 240 PEOPLE SAY I DONT LOOK LIKE I NEED THE SURGERY BUT THE THING IS WITH MY HEIGHT AND WEIGHT IM A 40 SO GO FIGURE AND ANOTHER THING IS THE DOCTORS SAW FIT FOR YOU TO HAVE SURGERY SO WHO CARES WHAT THEY SAY  I JUST THANK GOD EVERY DAY THAT I AT THIS TIME HAVE NO CO MORBITIES SO IM IN A PLACE WHERE I CAN PREVENT THAT I CAN HONESTLY SAY IF I HAD NOT WORKED OUT ALL MY LIFE WHICH I WILL CONTINUE TO DO GOD WILLING I WOULD BE WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY BIGGER THAN WHAT I WAS . THE THING IS GUESS WHAT I LOST 40 PDS BUT LIKE EVERY OTHER DIET WITH OUT THE SURGERY IT WILL COME BACK . GO FIGURE.

Now is not the time to listen to other people.  You do what is best for you.  As mentioned....visit the lightweight forum and you will see that there are others smaller than you that are successful WLS patients.  Sometimes, I wish I had done it before I crept up to 376lbs.

Just pray about it and proceed!  Best wishes to you on your journey.
