Aever feel like they'll be the ONLY one who's had WLS and fails?

I believe it's engrained in me from 10,000 failed diets in my past. I am 5-weeks post op today, although I can feel a change in my clothing and I'm feeling better as I sleep, breath, walk, etc.. I still have a fear that I am going to be the ONLY patient on this WLS site that fails horribly with it. What if's....SCHEEZE !! Anyone else, in the beginning, ever feel the same way? I'd love to hear some feedback - I'm hoping this is somewhat normal. I haven't weighed yet - I want to make it until my 6-week check up to weigh but I have been measuring and as of last week, I was down over 26 1/2 inches. I started at 356 and I'm only 5' 4 AND A HALF inches short....I mean, tall. :) All kidding aside - any words of wisdom would be greatly appreciated.
