Well I've got 3 more opti shakes in the box, and then I'll have done it, to me the hardest part. It was like a test, and I did it!! My surgery is booked for tomorrow afternoon, and I'm feeling okay. This isn't my first surgery, so maybe that helps, or looking at pictures of clothes I will fit into, probably a BIG help. Thanks to my great angel Cathy, and another friend who've had surgery, I feel ready for the new life I'm going to start. So, tomorrow I'll get my stuff in the car, be driven 2 hours and then I'm off to the races!

Don't forget to pack lip balm, earplugs and a sleep mask. Make sure you've got your protein and vitamins at home so you don't have to go shopping after your surgery. 

Good luck!
