I have never managed to lose weight up until now . Since i have been given my op date for june 2nd i have lost my appetite and lost 9lbs !!! I am that frightened im even thinking about not having it done I keep telling myself its a bit drastic and do i really need it, am i that fat ?, my consultant has got it all wrong ( i wish ) .... GRRR constant battle in my head... My divorce was so much easier compared to this

My op is on Monday and I'm having the same feelings. Pre-op jitters I think as if we sit down and calmly think it all through it is the right decision.

Stay calm and remember the real reason you need to do this get your photos out then you'll remember. This is your chance take it with both hands. xx

I went through the same thing and had a bit of a panic about never being able to eat certain things again. I have lost over 3 stone since I was referred and I also queried wether is was drastic and did I need it? I am on the milk diet ATM and have my op on Thursday, but it was a cancellation and therefore a bit of a shock. I think it is something that everyone goes through, however briefly, because it is such a big change. However, I know that in my heart, whatever I have lost I will put back on. I have also been able to sort out in my head (after fantastic advice from others) that even though there are some things I won't be able to have again, that I will never again feel the intense hunger and as such craving for the same food as before. Also with a little bit of adaptation I will be able to have low fat, low sugar versions of those foods and there are so many thing other than food that I have to look forward in the future Hope that helps xx
