Nervous and Hopeful.

Hi Everyone!

I am on my way to a healthier lifestyle by choosing to have the Gastric Sleeve procedure done. I am scheduled to have surgery on August 15th 2014, my BIRTHDAY of all days. I have dubbed it my re-birthday. :D

I have some anxiety as whether I have chosen the right procedure for me. My surgeon gave the option of choosing the Sleeve or Bi Pass. If there is any information or stories that you could share with me... please feel free to do so.

Much appreciation in advance.

That's great!

I have read so many stories from others, that they are happy that they chose the Sleeve procedure and that they have had minimal problems.

Haven't had surgery yet but best wishes! I think your anxiety is normal. I know I want to do it yet I still have OMG what am I doing moments. Once I go over my reasons why I'm doing it I calm down. Good luck to you!!
