Hello everyone, I am scheduled for Aug 26th to get the sleeve and begin my new life! Has anyone at this point felt withdrawn from people around you? I have a great support system but I am really nervous all of a sudden and scared I won't be able to get in all my water and proteins.... Is this normal???

Fear and anxiety are normal pre-surgery emotions. You are taking a risk.

Nerves are normal. It's a huge decision to make but for so many its been the best. Congratulations on getting your surgery date and lean on your team and the people here for support.

Hugs

Kate

Thank you Kate & Chelenka

I can still remember being scared/excited pre-surgery. And I'm 31 months post-op. It kinda stuck with me! :-P

That was great thank you!!!!

WLS is a big life change and it is scary! I think we all went through those moments of doubt and being nervous. Have faith in yourself that you will succeed!

I will succeed...I feel like this is my last chance..take it or leave it!!
