Tomorrow Is The Day!

Tomorrow Is my surgery and right now I'm all of a sudden so nervous. I have knots in my stomach. I'm worried. I have had two c sections and wasn't even this nervous. I'm mostly afraid of being unconscious to be honest. And being out of control. Also not being able to turn to food anymore which is all I know is so nerve wrecking. And I'm worried about what if I don't see my babies again. I need some assurance and comfort right about now
 
Your perfectly normal. It is a major surgery, but rest assured, the success rate for WLS is at an all time high of 98% !!! You've got this, and your babies will thank you for it later when you can run and play and jump with them and actually keep up with them as they grow! You can do this, yes it is going to hurt a bit, and the struggle is REAL getting beyond the surgery, it is by no means the 'easy way out'. It's hard! But you've got this! You've had 2 C-sections, trust me, so have I and they hurt worse than this procedure! Best wishes and congrats on your new journey to a healthier you!
 
Thank you very much for the assurance and reminder of why I am doing this. Nothing worth having comes easy right? Having a C Section is definitely more traumatic. I have said that so many times before. So if the recovery from a C Section is worse than WLC, than I should be in good shape lol. I cheated and had water this morning even though I'm not supposed to drink anything. I was thirsty as hell. Oh well lol. I will definitely keep everyone posted. Thanks again!
