VERY IMPORTANT: PLEASE HELP! State of Mind before surgery

After all the research I have done, it seems as if just about everyone I read about is thrilled that the had WLS (a few months after surgery). Everyone seems to br/have been so completely sure about the surgery. Because of these I am actually very embarrassed to even be asking this but it has been running me around so much and I know this is the best place to ask. PLEASE HELP and be honest as non-judgmentally as possible: I do have my fleeting doubts that I might be making a mistake. That maybe I will miss food too much, that maybe I will be the one in a thousand that dies or has some serious complications. I am 95% sure but not 100%. Is this terrible???? It seems like everyone else is 100% sure! Has anyone else had thse thoughts that this might end up being a mistake but went through with the surgery anyway?? I am prepared to make the lifestyle changes and have already started but I still run scared and am doubting myself from time to time. PLEASE HELP-I AM VERY STRESSED OUT ABOUT THESE FEELINGS AND WHETHER OR NOT THEY ARE "NORMAL" OR DANGER SIGNS??!!
