got my surgery date today!!!

I just got my surgery date scheduled for April 27th!! I am so excited, nervous, scared, and sad all at the same time. Why am I crying? I know I am doing the right thing here but I have soooo many emotions.

I have been overweight all my life and now and I am 126 pounds overweight and feel like I need this tool in order to help become a healthier me. Is it normal to feel sad like this?

But, like you, trying to lose a great deal of weight, over and over, is about as overwhelming a task and thought as it gets! We're going to feel so much better! Stay busy------you're going to be so happy.

I just recently got my date too it's for April 4th. I know exactly what you are talking about. It's crazy how you can feel sooo many different emotions at one time and it can be very much overwhelming. You just need a little time to process it give it the rest of the day...

I had a few tears myself but they were of relief & happiness not of fear...Im am confident this is the right choice..time to suck it up for me. lol My date is April 11th...

Congratulations! Have faith you are doing the right thing!!!
