confused

Well after a long wait Monday is my surgery day. I am so confused part of me wants the surgery but part of me doesn't. Its not about missing the food. I think its about my weight getting the best of me & now it has come to this. Losing weight is not a problem for me its keeping it off that I struggle with. Since following threw seems to be it. I am afraid this will be another thing that I will fail.

I'm afraid too. I just told my husband today "what if this doesn't work for me". After several tests and dr appointments, my surgery is 2/20. I'm sure these are normal feelings we're going through. I couldn't wait for my surgery date and was so excited, but now I'm nervous.

Don't be afraid ladies! Getting the sleeve was truly the best thing I ever did for my health. I successfully lost 90 lbs. in a year, which I never could have done without the sleeve, and all my stats (blood pressure, pulse, blood sugar, etc.) are normal now. Before surgery I had high blood pressure, was borderline diabetic, and had sleep apnea -- all were resolved within a few months after surgery. I am 2 years out and admittedly have had some weight re-regain, but only because I have been eating anything and everything, and am still dealing with some emotional eating issues. I am getting back on track now and the sleeve is a powerful tool to help me eat fewer calories and lose weight quickly. Trust me, you WILL lose weight with your sleeve ... lots of weight, and it will not be hard compared to traditional diets.

By the end of this year, you will be much lighter and I guarantee you'll be glad you got the sleeve! Best to you in your weight loss journey!
