Guest guest Posted November 19, 2005 Report Share Posted November 19, 2005 Thanks Barb. I'm glad I found this group. Dana Barbara wrote:Hi Dana! Welcome.....It's perfectly normal to be uneasy about a life changing surgery. Best thing for you is to learn all you can, so you know in your heart & mind that this surgery will be right for you. Dana, WLS can give back all that you have mentioned & then some!! It also is not without it's fault or quirks............So feel free to ask away & we'll see if we can help ease your mind.

I've been to the first meeting, my insurance has agreed to pay and have set up my first meeting with the doc where I will get appts for psch, dietician, pulmonary, etc. What is bothering me - at this point - is I'm not sure what is bothering me. Does that make sense? I'm just real uneasy all of a sudden. It was like - get this idea, research it, go to a seminar and now it is looking kinda certain. Afterall, this is what I want. I want - to lose the weight so I can get back to the life I enjoy without back, knee and hip pain; riding my horses without fearing I'm too heavy for them; walking and excercising without giving out immediately; looking half way decent in my clothes again; living a long time more to enjoy my kids, grandkids and life in general; maybe dating again???? - so why am I uneasy?? Have any of ya'll experienced this? IS this normal? Dana In Okla Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
