Time Flys so fast. I can't even figure out where this year has gone already. I walked in the store and saw Christmas stuff! I dont have a date date yet but I'm somewhere in Dec (ins requires 3 months) I know it sucks but it will be here before we both know it
Lol there isn't a blog, thread, article I have read.... twice lol. Set my nut appointment today.. Oct 24th the first open appointment I was so annoyed lol. Parts of me just wants to get it over with and other parts are on the fence. But no matter what I do my mind is stuck on thoughts, daydreams, fears and everything in between. All I can think about is the sleeve. Great to know I'm not crazy! What a relief! ! Lol
I'm just starting my journey and I can completely relate. I do nothing but research all day long (ie.. how I came across all of you wonderful people) I go back and forth all day in my mind. My family is anything but supportive mostly just fear of complications. But i do agree that we have to make the choice for ourselves. don't let anyone push you to do it if you aren't ready.. but don't let fear stop you. Remember (as I remind myself) anything worth having (a better life, feeling healthy, feeling better about ourselves) is never easy, but always worth it when you reach the end.
Good luck no matter what you choose!! Just be happy
Thanks, it is so wonderful to be able to read everyone's experience and feel supported even if it's not from loved ones :-) had my first appointment and the journey begins. Dr said Dec if all goes well.
My family is tripping out on me because I'm going to do this. My sister is sending me the horror links to read I just want to be excited and not pooping my pants with fear lol
