WOW...one more day and I feel so scared! I honestly thought I was going to be the fat girl for the rest of my life and I still have doubts that this surgery will work. I mean, what happens if I just lose 25 lbs and that's it? I don't think I could handle that.
I really do want this surgery, but it feels like I might be giving away a part of myself that I want to keep. How am I going to handle being a normal weight? I can hardly handle it when a few guys hit on me now, but soon I'm...

First, they couldn't find a vain to put in an IV,for thirty minutes! They kept poking me and I was crying so badly. I thought that was the worst part because I've heard that they knock you out when they put that long tube down your throat. No way!!!
So they get me to a small room and put some sort of anesthesia to calm me down because I was overreacting...
