Does anyone get anxiety when they get ready for surgery? I'm due to have weight loss surgery on the 4th and I'm so terrified cause this is going to really restrict me. My mom being really supportive and telling me to really think on it and pray on it and people ask me if its really wanna do sends me into tears. I've talked to several people who have had it done and they said their emotions were all over the place before and after surgery I have a medical problem that makes it hard to lose weight which have led to a number of health issues but 21-28 days on an all liquid diet then 6-8 weeks on soft foods but also having to walk around a lot I'm limited to what i can do at the gym due to be paralyised in my left hand due to a mild form of cerbral Palsy and i heard it takes a toll on your mental health. Has anyone gone through this surgery or tips on how to relax
