Hey everyone!!! Plz i am in desperate need any advice or thoughts you can give me!! I never had any doubts that I wanted to do this in the whole time of going through the hoops for insurance for about half a year... but now with less than a week to go (surgery scheduled for 5/20) I am scared to death!!! is this cold feet feeling normal???? And also let me explain my biggest fear is not the pain or going w/o food, but the fact that my stomach will be changed (and most of it gone!!) forever!!! I mean we only get one stomach!! The permanent aspect is what drew me to VSG but now being so close its what scaring the poo out of me!! I mean what do people do if they get ulcers, or cancer after this surgery. IDK if there is any reasarch on that. I have been glued to this computer since i got home trying to make these fears go away. Did anybody else react this way?? Why am i now only feeling this scared right before the big day??? i dont even know if i could call this off or not, everything is set to go!! I feel ridiculous for even admitting this but i hope i am not alone!!:lol0:

yeah, Babes is very good too...theres supposed to be one out here it Ft. Worth but idk how to get there. maybe that will be another stop! a (pre) last meal-meal! LOL...:001_tongue:

Sleeve is next week, my last meal will be MEXICAN FOOD, the thinking is Abuelos right now but may switch to Uncle Julio's. Good Luck to Everyone on your upcoming surgeries!

Just found out this week i am scheduled for 5/20 !!!!! So ready but very nervous as well. I am just so curious as to how much pain/discomfort I will be in immediately following the surgery. I have tried to find others description of it on the webpage but many people seem like it wasnt a big deal at all !! :wink0:
