Well, I made it.  Hallelujah!  I am feeling a little sore right now, especially my throat.  I guess that darn tube just rubbed me the wrong way!  I am feeling a little depressed today for some reason.  Questions keep popping up in my head such as "Why have I done this?" "What if I get sick in the future, then I'll have to go through Dr. Lavin first?", just so many freaking thoughts.  I am alone today, so that doesn' help.  I remember when I had my daughter three years ago.  I got that post depression that I used to kid people about not existing.  Darned if it doesn't!  I was crying for weeks.  Why?  Not a clue.
I guess changes are scary.  This is a big change to say the least as was having a baby.  

I feel better now that I've cried a little.

Tomorrow is the dreaded day...nothing but clear liquids!  Wednesday is my surgery at Fairway Medical Center in Covington, LA.

I haven't dealt well at all with the pre op diet.  I just hope that it doesn't show when they "go in"!  I couldn't handle the Optifast.  It made me gag just looking at it.  So, I opted for replacements such as lean meats and other high protein shakes.  I did well with this, and lost the weight they advised me to lose.

So, here I go.  I'll post afterward!
