Getting nervous
Nov 17, 2013
Well its 2 days before I see the surgeon and I'm starting to get restless and nervous stomach doing flips. I'm telling my self that I'm just talking to him. I have been waiting to get to this point,so why am i feeling this way,excitement maybe ,a little scared, unsure. Is it nerves if so I hope that they calm down.
exercising
Oct 13, 2013
I finally am up to 3 days a week exercising. The 28th of Oct. i will start another exercise class. I'm hoping by exercising before surgery it will help me heal faster after surgery. I also hope that starting exercise before surgery that it will prepare me for a steady exercise program after. So far i'm sticking to the programs. which has always been a challenge for me. I may not be able to do everything but I always keep moving. I have great instructors that give a lot of encouragement.

on my way
Sep 05, 2013
Hello, I have just started the program a month ago today. I got my book on the ninth. I have been following the steps that I need to learn. I have a couple more steps that I have to accomplish but working on them. It was hard at first, but since I had to quit smoking to have this surgery, the two work together really and I haven't smoked since the 12th of August. I am now working on getting my evaluation done.That's the 17th of this month. I'm getting excited the more steps that I accomplish,and the closer I get to possibly having a surgery date set.
