I've never been nervous about a surgery before, but I'm freaking out a little about this one. Don't know why. Maybe because such a massive change goes along with it. Maybe because my stress level was thru the roof because of a close friend that flipped out over me having it yesterday. Maybe cuz I just don't feel well having been on this pre op diet. Whatever the reason, prayers please for calm and for everything to go safely and smoothly.

Thoughts and prayers coming your way.

Nerves are normal at this time. It is a life changing moment, a change for the good.

Sorry your friend wasn't supportive. Thats why I only told those who I new had my back, no matter what their opinion was.

You'll do great, just follow the rules.

All went well! I do have some of that shoulder gas pain, but it I already feel better. can't believe it is done.

Best wishes for a smooth recovery -- and congratulations on this big step!

You will do fine. Keep walking & walking. The gas will go away. Talk to your bariatric center and follow their suggestions. Keep us posted. . . :wub:
