Surgery tomorrow!

Jun 10, 2015

Ugh, the butterflies won't STOP!  Or maybe that is my stomach upset by the clear liquids only and all the laxatives my doctor has me on for my bowel prep.  Either way IT'S TOMORROW!!!  

I got an email that said my surgery is scheduled for noon, so I will be checking in at 9am.  I pray to god I make it through surgery safely and that nothing goes wrong.  I have a TON of antibiotics to take today, and I'm trying to get as hydrated as possible while still on laxatives.

Today is a busy day, and all I can think of is that I am looking forward to my valium and movie night with the kids.  The really good news is I have lost my period weight (went all the way back to 338) and even lost some.  I'm right at 330.0.  Tomorrow I should be under 330.  When I started the pre-op diet I had hoped I would be under 300 for surgery, but 330 allows me to monitor my other stats on the scale.  That makes me happy.

Our friends know that it is going to be a while till I am able to go to any functions so they all got together and decided they are crashing our place for a slumber party on the 4th of July.  We are going to do horror movies in our theater, fireworks over the lake, grilling and beer (I won't be having the beer, don't worry) and all the dogs we can handle.  It was so sweet to hear them all wanting to still celebrate with us.  Now I just have to figure out how to do breakfast for 10 adults and 14 dogs.
