If it makes you feel any better I think we all have been through what your going through! You will go through every emotion from nerves, excitement, to maybe even questioning your decision! It's normal! If you have done your research and were confident enough to make the date, your ready! Just know your not the first to feel like this and we all have gotten through it, and you will to. We are here to help so don't be afraid to ask when you need it! Good luck!

Congratulations on making this decision!! And trust me, you will go through every emotion right up until you are put to sleep. But it is worth it!

You can do it!! We all did/will. I was super excited because I lost 18 pounds in the 3 week pre-op diet, my Dr. was very happy. I took that part very seriously, but also got out my final cravings a week before surgery! So I was content going in, I had a wonderful RN at the surgery center that was all my strength and she was so fun and friendly, it didnt seem like I was there for the reason I was.

Good Luck to all, take a deep breath and think forward a few months! God Bless :D
