The night before my surgery I kept reminding myself of all the reasons why I'm doing it' date=' how long it took to get there, and all the hard work I put in. This reassurance self talk completely calmed my nerves, and I was so calm and collected. Even the nurses noticed. :) you will be great, sending prayers. Looking forward to all of your guys POST op updates!

Cheers![/quote']

That is the same thing my husband told me. : ) Thank you for the prayers had some hiccups but it will all be ok : )

Thank you for sharing that you are scared! I was wondering if any one on here has moments of being scared.....this thread let me know I am not alone in the way I am feeling at times. Most of the time I am fine with it and I look forward to the change this will bring in my life but I do have my moments when I feel scared.

Bitter sweet right. I'm still scared and I am 4 days post op! But gotta pray exercise and eat right and all will be well. I just had a few hiccups and well now I have to stay focused on those and post op life

How are you feeling? I am ok. Still feel like someone played hockey in my belly : ). Thinking of you and praying all is well

I'm doing as well as can be expected. Not only is this a major life change, but also it was my first surgery. My body feels really beat up, but it's my throat that is really killing me! It feels like they used their foot to shove the intubation tube in..lol. But other than that, all is well. How are you Deege?

9:30 for me too. Nervous and excited. Can't sleep, actually . Good luck girls! :)

How are you? Checking in to see if everything went ok.

Sending speedy recovery to all
