Surgery Morning 2/14

Feb 13, 2014

Well the day is here. I am oddly calm and patiently awaiting 5am to get here. Surgery is at 7am. I came up with a pretty good post for this morning~

Happy Valentine's day! Happy Sleeve surgery day to me Have to be at the hospital in 3 hours and surgery is at 7 am. I am calm. which is odd, thought that I would be more nervous. I am looking forward to starting this next chapter of my life. To all those who think surgery is easy, well, it is... The surgeon does all the work today. But, we do all the homework before- forms, diets, paperwork, doctor visits, emotional ups and downs, I could go on... Then the easy part, just lay back and relax and let the surgeon do what he does best... Now comes the Hard Part= the rest of your life. Using that tool that you are given to make your best choices for you! So here I go, starting that new chapter in my life. The one that I focus on me and my health to become the best person that I can be! Thanks everyone here for all of your support and kind words!

Look forward to seeing you on the losers bench!

I am as ready as I am going to be. Did all the prep I can. Took pictures, confirmed with the surgeon, packed a bag and I'm sure I forgot something or maybe not!

I couldn't have gotten this far without the love and support of my husband! He is my best friend and my biggest supporter! I think that he is more nervous than I am. I can't blame him, he is the one who has to do most of the waiting around today. I am also lucky to have my friend Meredith. She has been the voice of reason and my sounding board for the past 7 months through the process to get to this point. I am so thankful to have such great people in my life who are there to go through this journey with me.

See ya later old body. There's gonna be a new one in town soon!
