Of course you're normal :) but after surgery you're gonna also be healthier and rocking a sexy bod! Good luck and don't worry, you're gonna do great

You will do GREAT!!!! It is definitely an emotional rollercoaster! Advice.... WALK! walk as much as you can after your surgery! It will help the air escape that they pump into your abdomen. If that air gets stuck, it hurts. Walk walk walk! Look forward to your healthier future and let go of your past. Another thing I learned... take pictures once a month. It helps with the mental images that sometimes you can get stuck with of being "heavy". I had the lab band before, and I struggled with those mental images of myself. Do not be afraid to go talk to someone about how you are feeling! Best of luck tomorrow! Congratulations on your journey! Let us know how you are doing as soon as you feel up to it!!!! HUGS!
