ok, so my surgery for bypass is actually this tuesday.  the 30th of march.  i am getting a little nervous.  i think more excited though.  i hate it that my boys are going to be staying away from me for a few nights.  i will def miss them, and i am sure they will miss me very much and be worried about there momma!!!  well i am excited for once in my life to be a looser!!!  LOL...  i am ready to shed some of these lbs!!!  i want to wear a bathing suit this summer and feel ok about the neighbors seeing me.  well i will post on monday while i am sitting home doing to bowl prep kit :(   i am def not looking forward to that.  well you all will hear back from me on monday......  thanks for all the support

SO I GOT MY SURGERY DATE AND IT IS 03/30/2010!!!  2 DAYS BEFORE MY B-DAY!!!  I AM SUPER EXCITED AND READY, YET NERVOUS...  I KNOW THINGS WILL BE OK... I DEFINATELY THINK THIS WAS MEANT TO BE... 

so i went to my 4hr. class yesterday.  learned about the "diet" and how things are going to happen in hospital.  also got the date to see the doc for the last time before surgery.  so my date is monday.  i go at 1:30, to see the doc, and then he will schedule my bypass surgery...  i am so super pumped.  although i would have liked to got the date for surgery yesterday so that i could tell my work when i was going to be off.  i am very excited and ready for this.  a little nervous about getting in all the protein, since i really dont care much for the protein powder.  although i have just tried unflavored...  any suggestions???  well wish me luck, and hopefully this time next week i will have had surgery!!!  or days till it....  anyways, if anyone has any last minuted ideas for me or anything to help me out, please do so....  thanks amanda
