I'm very excited, a little worried, some depressed, much happy... I don't know. I've used food for comfort for so long and that's how I got here. I've used eating for all my emotions: happy, sad, whatever. My emotions were usually pizza flavored. Soon, I'll be hitting the gym for emotion control. I'm so looking forward to my new life. This is the tool I've waited for!

Congratulations! I was exactly where you are a week ago. The emotional roller coaster was up and down. Strangely, I was very calm the morning of surgery. I got up, took my shower, got dressed (quickly since no makeup, etc), and headed to the surgery center. It just felt right.

Keep in touch and let us know how you are doing.

Best wishes for an uneventful surgery and ease in your recovery. May God be by your side throughout.

YAY YAY I'm so excited for you, and will keep you in my thoughts.

Sending you positive vibes for a speedy recovery and wonderful new life!

I love when you wrote about pizza-flavored emotions! I am in the same boat and am learning tools for dealing with stress and happiness too.

Good luck.
