My surgery is scheduled for 6/18/09 and I;, feel kinda down. Feeling like a failure, like I should be able to do this without surgery. Just really confused and emotional right now. Is this normal or am I thinking too much.

i think i went through the same thing before surgery, and still think about all the YEARS i went through being really really Obese...this surgery is a tool, to help us reach a healthy weight, you are not a failure, i wish you the best of luck with your surgery, keep us posted. lys

Sounds normal to me. As you get closer the feelings can get overwhelming. Try to just relax and let it go!

Mary, believe it or not - you sound perfectly normal. You are not a failure because you are doing something to help yourself get a second chance at a healthy life style! The nerves will be there until it's over. Just hang in there - we're here for ya!
