Hello all, My name is Alex, i am finishing up my preop tests and paperwork for the lap surgery. I have read some of your messages and I am also feeling the same way about some of the issues. I guess the biggest fear is just hoping that all of this will work for me. I also have a fear of being put to sleep. Im open to all posts and suggestions from anyone that can give me some positive feedback. Thankyou!:help:

Hi Karen, My name is Alex, I understand your fear. Mine is kinda the same, im 6ft tall, and 389 pounds. I want this to work because I have also tried every weight loss program ever created. I guess my ultimate fear is "what if this doesnt work", also of being put to sleep....I guess we have the stories of others like us that have shared the same experiences and have had positive experiences to keep us going. A great man once said "You have nothing to fear but fear itself", Good luck. Alex
