Well, the has finally come that I have both dreaded & welcomed. My surgery is tomorrow, the 22nd and I am a nervous wreck!! I want this, but am so afraid of all the complications that could arise. I keep thinking this should be easy since this is the second go around for me, but the sleeve wasn't as drastic and the RNY. I've seen so many success stories on here and I know the support is fantastic, but I am still apprehensive. I just hope I can keep it together at the hospital tomorrow and not break down. Thank goodness the hubby will be their to hold my hand. Okay, guess I will see everyone on the other side!

Good luck to you tomorrow. You might write down what you're looking forward to after surgery (being able to jog or run, shopping in the "regular" section of clothes stores, physical activity with family and friends). It sure helped me be less scared of my upcoming procedure.

good luck! I am scheduled in one week and very nervous too! It would be nice to hear how it goes for you.

Good luck and best wishes for you tomorrow!!

Good luck! I will keep my fingers crossed for a smooth surgery and an even smoother recovery! You can do this!!

I UNDERSTAND YOUR NERVOUS -- BUT IT SHOULD BE A BREEZE--- I HAD LAPROSCOPIC RNY AND I MADE SUER I GOT UP THAT DAY AND WALKED BECAUSE I DIDNT WANT ANY COMPLICATIONS THAT I COULD PREVENT, NO DVT, OR BREATHING PROBLEMS. SURE I WAS SORE FOR A WEEK OR SO , BUT I WAS ONLY OUT OF WORK ABOUT 9-DAYS ( I HAVE A DESK JOB) AND I RETURNED BACK . BUT I KEPE MOVING AT WORK. I DID EXACTLY WHAT THE DOCTOR SAID. THE HARD THING FOR ME WAS ME TRYING TO DRINK THE PROTEIN-- I WAS FORCING MYSELF BUT IT WASNT HAPPENING LIKE I SHOULD--BUT YOU JUST KEEP GOING--GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!
