Greetings,

I just wanted to thank everyone for your wisdom and information provided as I've researched the vsg procedure as the right choice for me. I have been a lurker on this site for the past three months now and have decided to formally join and become a part of the WLS community officially.

I don't have a scheduled surgery date yet, but, it will be at the start of the new year for sure. I'm excited and not nervous at all (this concerns me a bit). I think all of the research and appointments I've had thus far has really calmed my nerves and I'm just looking forward to beginning a new chapter in my life. TTYL.

After an "epiphany", I was not nervous at all. The only time I was a bit off was the day before surgery. I think that had more to do with being overwhelmed by many things though.  I was  laughing and  joking around the morning of my surgery and I  really think it helped everything. 

Congrats on making your big decision!

I agree- it is not unsual to NOT be nervous, just as it is not unusual to be nervous. It just depends is all. I was like you, once I decided I was not nervous about the procedure. Congrats on making the decision!
