Surgery went good. In hospital now and hopefully will be released tomorrow. Had some nausea, and heartburn, but taking meds for that. Couldn't use restroom last night probably because on Anastasia. Had to have in and out cathx2. But able to go today. Feeling better today then yesterday

Thanks for the encouragement! I keep coming back to what you mentioned as well. I keep thinking if I cancel , then I will still be in the same boat, and likely going through everything again to reschedule. I hope you're able to work you way through the program again, and before you know it surgery will be here.

Well, here it goes. My surgery is tomorrow. I am doing the RYGB. I am going to be honest with you, I have wondered several times and I doing the right thing? But I keep coming back to why I started this journey in the first place. I hope/think it is normal to wonder why can't I do this on my own? What will my friends and family really think? Risk vs benefits of surgery? I am hoping a year from now (or for that matter even a couple of months) I will look back at this post and think this is the best thing I have ever done. I currently weigh 279. My biggest weight was 295, but consult weight was around 292.
Even though I have went back and forth on what to do, I am glad at this point I have kept my surgery date. Even though I am anxious, I feel this is the right thing to do. I pray almost daily about this and hope that everything will go well.
