Shouldn't I atleast be excited!?

I just found out on Friday that my insurance was approved and I am scheduled for surgery on March 20th. That seems so fast to me. Shouldn't I feel excited instead of terrified?! Does that mean I am not really as serious about this as I should be...?

I was both excited and nervous, but kinda in shock I think. I remember just waking up in surgery and being like...That was it, I am done?

Everything will be ok as long as you listen to your doctor and have everything that you need before hand.

I think that almost everyone has "second thoughts" and "doubts" etc. once they closer to being banded. It's completely normal. If you feel serious doubts you can always postpone things. But just keep in mind that you will always feel this way just before surgery, no matter how many times you postpone it. It just comes with the territory. And as for feeling excited, you'll probably have those feelings too.

There is a thin line between 'terrified' and 'excited' much of the time....and personally I switched back and forth numerous times preBand....

I remember.
I went to the seminar in May . Surgery (self pay) in July. I felt like it was too fast but I knew my history of diet and then gain it back was NOT going to change. That told me that even if I felt rushed I needed to grit my teeth and go thru it.

I teetered back and forth between excited and terrified, sometimes moment to moment pre op.
Just think of what the future holds for you. "Money well spent" is the best quote here.
