17 Days before surgery; 3 days before pre-surgery diet
Oct 14, 2011
I had my preop appointment today. I wasn't nervous at all before today but after the appointment I felt a few minutes of panic. I have fought long and hard to get to this point. I've been at peace since approval was given by the powers that be. I have been excited. But panic set in for about 10 minutes. Then I got over it. I have planned my meals for the next 2 weeks. I have to eat food from my surgeon's office for these 2 weeks. Well, starting Monday. I will be surviving on 800 calories. I will not eat anything off of plan. If I do not lose weight, they will cancel my surgery date. So I will not play games nor let my cravings rule my life. I will remember that this all is a blessing and a privilege and that surgery is not an easy-fix but a tool.
