Congrats!

Hello all,
I am scheduled for the sleeve surgery in April. I was feeling excited about having surgery until two weeks ago. I have been watching a ton of videos on YouTube and reading lots of posting on here. Now I am SCARED! I understand that every person has a unique experience, and I had done lots of research before and during the four month weight loss program that I had to go through per my insurance requirements. But now, when I read stuff and watch videos, I get scared and am doubting that I should put my body through a surgery. I'm having the surgery for medical reasons versus a desire to be a certain number on the scale or to look a certain way. I want to improve my health and hopefully reduce risk of having additional health issues.
Help! I read that people go through brief moments of regret or "what rid I do" right after surgery, but I'm scared before. Nervous that I will be the unlucky person to get all the negative consequences or side effects. Thinking about pushing surgery back a couple weeks. Just seems I want to do that for some reason. I have up to early May to get it done per my insurance.
What do you all think, recommend, etc.?
Thanks!

Thank you so much! Really appreciate it. I think these two weeks have been harder also because I'm not telling my family about the surgery. A close friend knows and I talk with him. But, that's it. So, I have all these feelings churning and not many outlets. I have a therapist, but she is not totally on board with it mainly because she had a couple patients who did other surgeries and "cheated" because they didn't want to follow the guidelines. I told her I won't cheat and I'm too serious about this to mess it up. Surgery is serious. Thanks so much for listening.
