5 days until surgery - I am getting nervous and thinking of backing out.

I am with Tek, I am not going to try to tell you one way or another, this is your path and journey. My biggest worry was, what if I have major surgery and it doesn't work? It worked but so did I. I was literally triggered for about six months after surgery if I saw an advertisement for Pepsi. I couldn't go to Costco because I couldn't conceive of a world without my beloved tuxedo cake! I didn't realize fully how much my life after my rny had to change until I was post op and struggling to get protein in. The surgery is a piece of cake(or full fat yogurt!) the work afterwards is what you should be concerned about.

Opti Wt Nov 4/17 226 lbs BMI 45 Sx Wt 212 lbs RNY surgery Nov 23/17 M1 -18 M2-9 M3-10 M4-8 M5-6 M6-7 M7-6 M8-3 M9-1(so far) Down to within one pound of my goal and 99 lbs down from my highest weight. I was not a fast loser but who cares as long as you get there! I know the newbies check the trackers and the signatures so although I kind of lost track of how the rest of the weight came off, you should know that it was not fast and furious but it was slow and steady!
current BMI 24.7 that, my friends, is NORMAL!!! Strong is the new pretty!
