2 more days until the surgery
Hi,
I have 2 more days until the surgery. I am both excited and nervous not only about the surgery, but the fact this is the start of a whole new way of life for me. My comfort zone is going to move drastically.
First on the surgery, I am anxious. I hate the lieing down part on the surgery bed. When I had my stomach scoped, they had to keep me upright until the sedatives kicked in. Once that happened, I was fine.
Secondly, how did yall handle the excitement and possible disappointments? What I mean is, I have built up in my head all the changes...thinner body, cuter clothes, feeling better, more confidence and assurance in my self, attention by males etc. What if the reality is not quite what I hped? or is that even the case? Maybe reality is going to be much better than I think.
I know I need to start attending the support groups. That will help alot, any other thoughts?
