Surgery is booked (SWLC)...feeling completely overwhelmed!

I've been reading the forums and blogs for months and finally decided to do it!

I booked my surgery today with Dr. Cobourn at SWLC in Mississauga. After getting my introductory package with all of the forms to fill out and instructions to read I am feeling completely overwhelmed! :(

I know I'm doing the right thing but am freaking out!

    The forms are easy peasy. There are just a lot of papers to go through. You can do it!!! When is your surgery date???

    Congratulations on your date. I am scheduled for November the 10h @ 9:30. I know the feeling of being overwhelmed because I feel the same way it seems like alot. Have you tried wal-mart for your protein shakes they are pretty reasonable. Good luck.
