Tomorrow is the BIG day...
Nov 08, 2012
After everything I've done to get to this point, I'm finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel and surgery is tomorrow. I've had nothing but clear liquids for 5 days now. I've surprised myself throughout this week. I didn't think there was any way I would have made it through the week without cheating but, I did. I feel like that in itself is an accomplishment.
I'm nervous about the surgery but looking so forward to seeing the results and for the first time in a very long time, being healthier.
Next time I sign on, I will be Post-op and on my way to better health, better body image, higher energy levels and above all..........More Fabulousness! :)
Just so stressed....

I am a little over one week from my surgery and I find myself overcome by so many things. I'm nervous, worried, anxious, excited, and terrified.
I want this. I've wanted this for so long but thought I'd never actually get to have it. Now here I am, and I question everything.
I worry about complications. I pray each day for guidance and strength. I hope I survive this next week without having a complete and total nervous breakdown.
It feels real, I feel terrified.

I felt so many emotions when I heard the words "lets choose a date".
Mostly, excitement but it was definitely a moment of panic too. I feel like this is the first time I've done something for just me and I also felt guilt because of that.
I'm grateful for my opportunity and thankful that I kept on going thru every test, every appointment, every set back, every goal this past year has brought.
I rely on my faith to get me through the surgery and all that will come afterward.
I know God brought me to it; He'll also get me thru it.
My first blog...

Today, I am scheduled for my overnight sleep study. I'm nervous and a bit uncomfortable with the whole idea of sleeping and being monitored to make sure I'm breathing. But, I will take this next step because it is just another step toward surgery.
I have one visit left with my Dr for my insurance diet and that is next Thursday. That visit will be bittersweet because I remember thinking at the first visit...I have to do 7 months of this...will I make it? And here I am. I made it.
I hope to make lots of new acquaintances on here as I go through the rest of my journey to my surgery and through my weight loss.
