HELP!!!!!!!!!!

It is a natural reaction to be apprehensive before any surgery. All of the doubts you posted seem like they are due to lack of support from the people around you. The question to ask is are you ready for permanent change? If this is something that you decide is right for you, then put those other fears to rest and know that we are here to help.

Bless your heart! It's gonna be okay. I think that is why I'm not telling anyone. I just don't need the added stress. I know it's the right choice for me and that's that. Stand your ground.I kinda worry about the separation thing too. Is that common? I honestly don't think it's going to be like that. The way I see it, if you are a volume eater and it only takes a small amount of food to give you the same satisfaction that there really won't be any separation. Good luck!
