I am scheduled to be sleeved tomorrow at 10:00 a.m. I haven't been the least bit nervous until today. Now I am just a bundle of nerves. My head hurts, my shoulders are cramped and I am scared. I know I won't back out. I have come too far and want this too bad. I am just nervous.

I so know what you are going through. I fly out tomorrow night and my surgery is on Wednesday at 7:30 a.m.

I'm just trying to focus on all the good things coming for me!

You'll be ok, it's a normal reaction. . . this surgery was my 18th major surgery and with each and every one of them i was so nervous and scared. . . but as you can see, i'm still here and doing very, very, well! Your going to do really well too. . . it's not a bad surgery at all. . . you are going to be up and about the next day or like me the same day of surgery once i woke up. . . I really needed to get out of bed when i woke up. . . after all my legs didn't hurt did they now. . . so i walked out into the hallway and 1/2 way down and went back to bed, the next day thou, i walk 8 lengths of the hallway and by the evening was walking 12 lengths . . . felt really good. . . by the 3 day i was so ready to go home, and on the 5th day had no pains at all. . . you'll do great! just sip your fluids, do your walking, and think positive, be happy, you are starting a great journey now that can take you to much better things in life. . . good luck and i'll be thinking of you tomorrow! keep us posted! Mini-Me, this post goes for you too! You'll go great too. . . just walk and sip ok? Cheers

:thumbup1:goodluck, you?ll do just fine....don?t be nervous, be happy you?re on the road to your new weight and your new life with your new body.

GodBless.

We'll all be pulling for you tomorrow, and keeping you in our thoughts. I think nerves are perfectly normal at this point, and you just have to go in with a positive mentality.

You'll do great, and we're saving you a seat on the loser's bench.

Wishing you the best! You will do great. Good luck!

Good luck and congratulations on getting your surgery. I know just how you're feeling since my surgery will be on Tuesday! I'm anxious to get it over with and start the healing. We can heal together!

Keep us posted, and welcome to the new you!

Thanks for all your kind words. I will post again after I get home on Tuesday. I am excited and can't wait to join the losers!

Loosing -

Your reaction is perfectly normal. I had the same reaction with knee surgery last month. Started to doubt if my knee "really hurt that bad". Take a deep breathe (or a couple). Everything will be fine. *hugs*. :biggrin0:

Good luck!! Im excited for you :-) I'll say a little prayer and keep my fingers crossed for a speedy recovery....Just think of the end result :-)

Loosing, you have lots of support and this week, there are a bunch of us getting sleeve and I'm sure we're all feeling the same way. Hang in there, you'll be back home in no time......

Sounds like a normal reaction to me...just keep putting one foot in front of the other and you will come out sleeved! Congratulations.

Loosing, good luck today! I'm sending good thoughts your way!
