Haha - if that were only true (about the heat) I'd weight 120. I sweat just looking out the window. I'm in Maryland - not as hot as San Antonio (I grew up in Phoenix, though, so I DO know heat) and we've had a hot summer. I'm ready for fall! I wasn't told to go on a pre-op diet. I kind of wish I was. I've gained 10 pounds in the last month. I've had a repetitive "last meal." What does your diet consist of? Mostly fasting? How are you doing? Do you feel ready? Wish I could attach a picture - not exciting, but it's a countdown of our day. What time is your surgery? I have to be at the hospital at 5:30 AM. When you see it that way, it seems different. Like O M G it really is happening. Soon.

Thank you - the best of luck to you too! I don't know about you but I can't wait to have this over with. Where are you located?
