I am so excited!!!  My support system is nervous and excited for me too because they know how much this means to me which is really awesome.  I also have a support system at work through my boss and a co-worker.  God is truly blessing me through this and I know I will be successful. I have no fears or anxiety about this whatsoever.  Some people have a fear of the unknown which is completely understandable.  I am simply focusing on the hear and now and doing what I know I need to do for my health.  I want to be around for not only myself but for my family and my soon to be born nephew who is arriving in June.  I will only be 2 months out of surgery when he arrives but it will be so worth it and I will already be losing weight and already be a healthier aunt for him.

Some people are afraid they will die during surgery.  Again, God has me in His hands.  I don't fear that either.  I have a good surgeon and am just not worried about that.  I have researched this and have done my homework as well.  If my surgeon or the hospital had a poor reputation then I wouldn't be going there. 

My only concern, I guess, would be after the surgery and helping my roommate around the house.  We have animals and they will need feeding, some medicating, etc.  I want to be able to help her with some of that as well and not just rest most of the time although I know I need to do that too.

I will do what the doctors tell me I can and can't do physically as well as what I should and shouldn't eat.  This is going to be a life changing adventure and I am keeping my eye on the prize which is a new and healthier me!
