Note To Self 1-5-2012

Just a note to myself: from today on I am going to focus on on the good that will come from having WLS instead of obsessing and focusing on all of the things that can go wrong. I've been looking at this forum and the comments and everyone seems to be so upbeat and excited and I start to wonder if i'm the only one that is scared shitless of doing this. I've allowed myself to become hostage to my fears, the unknowns and obsessing over what could go wrong. Time to redirect my energy and let it be what it will be....Time to start thinking about what it will feel like to be hot again :) You go girl!

It's good that you've been reading all the posts. You won't have a false sense of "this'll be a breeze" in the beginning when you first get sleeved. Everyone's experience is different, but at least you won't be blind-sided if things are a little rocky in the beginning. The good news is that once you're healed up and get into the swing of things with your sleeve, you'll be happier, healthier and on your way to your new you!

I wish you all the best on your pursuit!

Hi, This is a great forum. I am so glad I found this site. I am scheduled to be sleeved on 01/18, I was scared to death to follow through with it. But I prayed and gave it to GOD. Today I went for my surgery clearance and things went well. I know it is going to be hard and such a big change, but the fear of me going on dialysis or having a heart attack scares me even more. Make the best coice for you and know the people on this site are very imformative and helpful.

Good luck to you.
