Guys,
Im about three weeks away from surgery. May 2nd is the big day and I'm starting to have a lot of anxiety. Starting to think maybe I shouldn't do this. This had been something that I have wanted for a long time. Im starting to read about complications which I already knew but now its really starting to hit me. Most patients have a high possibility of major complication in the first 30 days after surgery (thats what I read on one website). Im scared and thinking maybe I should just back out. However, im 28 years old. 5'4 260 and I have BMI of 44.5. So Im wondering if I do not do this will I ever lose weight? Will I always regret it? Will I wonder how my life would of been different? What if I do it and I have a serious complication? Will I regret having the procedure? Anyways please help calm my nerves guys. I need help. What have been some of your concerns?
