Hi, I wanted to wish you good luck on your surgery. I just had surgery on 11/1 and, if you are like me, you are feeling both excited and scared. The day before my surgery was the worst, however, the day of surgery I wasn't nervous at all --I was very calm. I guess I had faith that I was doing the right thing. Don't worry too much and have faith in your surgeon. I have lost about 25lbs, so this surgery works! Good luck to you and God bless!
