DS on Dr's recommendation. I am a candidate for sleeve, but he said chance of weight regain is lower

I have taken two of my three classes and I think I have more questions than answers. My first thought sitting through these classes is "If I could comply with all of these nutrition requirements and restrictions, I don't think I would need surgery". I am scared that I am going to make my life miserable by altering my digestive tract and then not being able to stick to the diet and causing all sorts of problems.
My other issue is that I do not have an office job. I am outdoors, mobile, and never know which direction I will need to go. The other day it occurred to me that I drove 4 different vehicles before lunch. I don't know how I would be able to keep up with Vitamins and supplements short of a fanny pack. Also, I had to drive the other day for 8 hours in a remote area and there was no food option available (I was on a tractor). The last thing I need is to pass out behind the wheel.
Am I over-thinking, or are these legitimate concerns? I have all but talked myself out of this procedure

It is not nearly as straight-forward of a decision as I thought it was at first. But, you are right... changes, permanent changes, need to be made
