Three weeks has gone by now and I really have not come to the realization that I have had the surgery already.  I am getting adjusted ok but for some reason I am getting down. I am sure things will get better.  As of last Wednesday at my 1st doctor visit I was already down 12 lbs.  I will weigh myself on Sunday when I get home from bible school.

I am getting ready to go the the hospital to have the WLS that is going to change my life.  I have waited so long for this and it is here.  I am praying my outlook and self esteem will be raised and my depression will be lifted when it comes to me weight that has plagued me foe most of my life.  My body can not stop shaking and I woke every 2 hours last night. I know this has got to work and I am going to put my all into it and follow all the life changes. Well what more can I say other than I am so scared!

Can you believe it, just 33 hours to go! But who is counting.  My nervers are starting to overtake me and I am do everythng I can to make the time go by faster.  I have been in daily contact with Donna (nutritionist) and she has given me the surport I need.  I has recieved so many best wishes on my surgery that I know I am not alone.  I am so up I can`t sleep. WOW this is really going to happen!!!

How can it be 3 days til surgery, it still seems unreal. My nurtitionist emailed me to wish me the best and she would be up to see me after the surgery. My case worker Carolyn visited me today to see how things were going and to wish me the best.  She knows actually how I am feeling because she had WLS 1 year ago and she has been an inspiration for me. So for now I just have to close me eyes and wait till the hour to come. I plan on keeping myself busy to past days to come.

Five more days to go and everything is going great .  I have had no problems with the shakes, actually I love them.  By the end of the day I am not really in the mood for my 3rd shake.  The dietician said even though I am not hungry it is important to get that much need protein in me.
I am so so eager to get this part of my life onward. I have waited so long to get to this part of my journey it is hard to believe is really going to happen.  I have many people who support me and I need all the support I can get.
Onward and forward I go!!!

It is so hard to believe that my surgery is only a week away.  This has been a long time waiting and I will be there next week.  The nervous are starting to stir up, but I know it is to be expected.

June 14th and 15 long days to go till my WLS journey begins! I am so excited!

Today is June 14th 2009 and the countdown continues. I have 15 more days to wait for my Lap-Band Surgery!!
