  1. Thank you so much Pedro for posting your thoughts, I can relate so much.

    I am 6 days pre op and my mind is definitely playing tricks on me as well. I feel the doubt seeping in about whether this is the right decision for me. Truth is in my heart I know it is but I'm so afraid of regretting my decision or having WLS change my life in negative ways.

    I keep reminding myself that

    1. This is not an impulsive decision

    2. nor has it been only my idea (I'm working with a great support system who have worked/known me for many years through my weight struggles)

    3. I am not the same person or in the same place as I was when I got the lap band and had so much difficulty with it

    4. I'm not expecting "a miracle", "easy weight loss" or "smooth sailing" emotionally or physically, this is a life long change

    5. I can reach out for support now which I could/would never do before

    6. I do not need to be perfect

    7. I cannot continue on at this weight and with these health consequences

    8. I deserve it!

    Wishing you well!
