Congrats Felicity...I am excited & nervous too, my date is Monday the 23rd. I am 42 and wish there had been an opportunity to have it while I was younger, but I am thankful that the time is here now! Think positive, Have Faith & Enjoy your journey! Best of luck & God Bless!
I have my date now also..I will be having it on the 23rd here in Colorado and I am soooo excited and terrified at the same time. For calming purposes, I try to constantly remind myself that I have done everything the surgeon has told me to do...I quit smoking 7 months ago and I am losing weight prior to the surgery. I am following the pre-op diet to the dime and after the surgery I will comply with every instruction. I have the utmost confidence in the surgeon I have and everything else is out of my control and in God's hands. Try to remember this and you will find some peace while you prepare for your new life. Best of luck to everyone and God Bless!
