Im anxious, scared and ready for change all at the same time. I am hoping to gain a chance at having a full life out of this wls. Meaning ,I want to actually start living my life and not constantly fee like Im on the bench because of my weight. Also im a new mom, I want to live long enough see my child grow up. This decision is a life saving one for me. Thank you guys.

  8. Hello Everyone! Im 31 yrs old, 5'2 and weigh 370lbs. I am currently pursuing the gastric sleeve and have a surgery date of 4/26/2014. Needless to say I am SCARED out of my mind. I Know that surgery is going to help me, however im at a point where mental im messing with myself. Al sorts of things come to mind such as, Am I too big for general anesthesia? Will I stop breathing during surgery being that I have sleep apnea? Will I regret my decision? Then I start thinking that I can lose the weight on my own. However history tells I can not do it on my own, Im afraid that I will talk myself out of having surgery and remain a prisoner in my own body. Has anyone had these issues? Where your mind start second guessing your wLs decision? Please let me know, Id love some feedback.Thanks in advance!
