Anyone else having surgery coming up? How have you been feeling about it. I have been plagued with anxiety about the surgery, how I will cope afterward without food for comfort, and worried this anxiety will never leave! I know it's the right decision for me, but it's hard to be logical with yourself when your emotions are spiraling.

Sounds just like me.....way back in 2009.

I'm coming up on 6 years post op and there hasn't been one time I've regretted my decision to have Lapband surgery. Quite the opposite actually.

Best wishes!

It was the same for me. I almost canceled my surgery on the way there. Then I figured I came this far so I continued on. It's been a week and I'm down 10 pounds. Glad I didn't cancel. You will be just fine. I worried about dying on the table. And the many problems associated with the after surgery problem. Do far so good. Good luck.

Thank you for your supportive words. The anxiety is less now post op, still working through it. It is truly a big change and I'm trying to give myself grace to adapt to that. I am post op day 5 and still in pain and healing but I am so glad I did it.

Hello guys. I had my surgery a week ago today, and thank G-d I feel great. I'd like to make acquaintances with people like me who just had surgery or will soon so we can support each other.
