10-06-2009...... The day before.....

Oct 05, 2009

Well here it finally is.....  the day before my RNY.  It's almost 1a.m. and I'm wide awake thinking of all the changes that lie ahead of me.  No more "all you can eat", no more 12 oz steaks, no more Cadbury Creme Eggs.  I'll miss them all - it's been fun while it lasted.  This day kinda reminds me of the day I decided to quit smoking - it's like I knew this day would one day come.  It's here and I'm ready for change.

I'm a little nervous, still practicing the relaxation techniques my therapist gave me (huge huge help) and I'm also excited.  To be quite frank, I'm more nervous about having to stay at my mother's house for a few days after my surgery - yikes.  I hate not having my perfectly comfortable bed every night - but certainly welcome the help. 

Well, I'm hoping my surgery goes well and the pain isn't unbearable.  I pray that the nausea and/or vomiting is at a minimum (if not, nonexistent).  I also wish the same to all my other OH friends that are also having surgery tomorrow (and later), I look forward to hearing about everyone's experiences and sharing our successes and challenges together.

See everyone on the loser's bench......  tee hee!!

Much love!!!
