I would be trying to remind myself that what I personally would be deathly afraid of is not surgery (its a relatively quick and safe procedure) but the change in lifestyle afterwards. Never again will I be able to really pig out on McDonalds, that type of thing. In realising that, it made me realise that I never can again anyway if I want to look and feel a certain way, so perhaps try to remind yourself that what the band is going to FORCE you to do, you really have to do anyway. I think its probably that journey many are afraid of, not the procedure itself, and there's no way not to make that scary. Try not to project that fear onto your actual surgery.

Isnt it amazing when you take the time to actually taste your food, that most of that stuff is truly revolting. That ring of grease around your mouth feeling, bleuch. You can ignore that when you've wolfed down your fish and chips in 2 seconds flat, but not when you take the time to eat it properly - I find my appetite for it diminishes mighty quickly.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
