Just scheduled surgery
I just scheduled my surgery for July 5th. I'm excited and honestly terrified. I've read everything, talked with other patients and prepared to the best of my abilities- but I can't shake the anxiety. I definitely want to " think twice- cut once" and when I write down the pros and cons... DS is it. Any words of wisdom on how to calm my mind in the time leading up to the surgery?
I was scared up until I was put under for the operation. I focused more on the Pro's
because the worst con's seem to be on a person by person basis and not generic to
DS'rs as a whole.
For me concentrating on the best chance to lose the most weight and keep it off afterwards.
Keeping it off was at the top of my list. I had been able to lose weight but could never
keep it off, always gaining back more than I lost. I knew I couldn't keep going the way I
was.
It's a scary, exciting decision and journey but for me it was well worth it. Congrats!!
