Mine is hair loss so I'm preparing

of course your fears are real and valid...we all have them..but my biggest fear was not having surgery so that is why i posted that..isn't that was the post was about, our biggest fears???the surgery is non reversible and life altering so please don't think that i'm down playing any of that. I never once said the surgery wasn't a "BIG" deal so please dont put words in my mouth. this surgery is the BIGGEST decision of my life thus far as im sure is was for everyone on here.. good luck with your weight lose

My biggest fear is something going wrong during the surgery and I die... Second, it's having extremely loose skin that flaps around everywhere, third, it's losing all of my hair and last but not least its getting kidnapped in Tijuana... Can we say hypochondriac much? Lol

lol..i sure hope you dont get kidnapped in tijuana..thanks for the laugh

We will still be hard to carry postoperative so we will be safe about the kidnapping part Jes! But I relate to your fears totally. Anesthesia scares me so much! Especially cuz I'm high BMI.

Not lose anymore weight I have been very very slow 3 1/2 weeks and I'm only down 10lb. Biggest fear not dropping any more pounds and being fat forever. I don't worry about losing hair there are hair extensions and designer wigs.

I'm losing slowly too. BUT, I haven't gained any weight back that i've lost and at this point in the past, I would have. Wouldn't you? So lets just keep plugging along!!

(I like your new pix!!)

other than not having the surgery like i posted already i guess that hair loss or having to get my gallbladder out later on down the road.

Failure. 6 wks out and down 14 pds I feel like i did this drastic surgery for nothing. It sucks. Could care less about hair loss it will grow back.

Mufasasmom- it's NOT for nothing!! It will come off. It really will.

ROFL!

I fear that being thin won't actually fix anything. I've been very large since high school- I don't have any concept of what it's like to be a "normal" size- that's scary.

As of today I have no fears. I am ready for Nov.12, 2012. The rebirth of CJ.

I'm terrified of regaining weight.

Don't be...

Eat right, drink plenty of Water & exercise regularly!

My plan: obey the do's & don'ts!

Midgets! :ph34r:

Me too!!

Stupid, but my breasts going to nothing! Like I'm so afraid, and can't have gross saggy ones either.... Just don't want anymore surgeries....
