Ahhh surgery is tomorrow!

Oh I'm so nervous and happy. Today I belive I get a weight in when I see the surgeon. Tomorrow my surgery day I'm all having thoughts that run through my head. . Am I that big do I really need this now? But there is one that sticks to me and that is why I'm still going through it. I hoping everything will be ok today and I get good news.

Congratulations, best wishes for the surgery tomorrow and a speedy recovery!!

Nerves are normal but you will be fine. Please let us know how it went and that you are okay :D

Stephanie, you can do this! Whenever I've faced some pretty daunting tasks, like walking into a surgery room three different times, I just focused on how great I'll feel an hour afterwards. Maybe not physically, but mentally I know I'll be so proud of myself for accomplishing such a big goal.

But most importantly, before they wheel you away towards your new life, take a moment to say goodbye to your old self. A therapist once told me that I was afraid of success. I do believe that. It's not failure that haunts me, because I'm very comfortable with that. But to make a change, and stepping out of my comfort zone, is absolutely terrifying. I think for whatever reason, most of us in this situation are afraid of success. Some of us, like myself, are afraid to see just how great we can become. We self sabotaged ourselves so indefinitely, we carved out this safe niche with food and stretchy pants.

Tomorrow is your change, butterfly. You'll be more than fine.
