Someone at work asked me if I was excited today. And my answer surprised me, but it was completely honest. I am excited
about the possibilites that the future holds. However, I feel like I am approaching this from a realistic stand-point. This isn't going to be easy. This is a surgical procedure. I realize that there are going to be moments of regret in the coming weeks. And moments of doubt in myself.
But, I just pray that I have the strength in takes to make it through those moments.
Closing In On 10-19-10

It is really starting to sink in that I am really close to the day that will change my life forever. Friday anesthesiology called to go over my health history before surgery. Then, yesterday I attended my last pre-op support group. And last night I realized that my pre-op class, upper GI and registration is a week away. Wow!!! This is really sneaking up on me. Funny I should say that when this has been 36 years in the making!
I am still having some concerns about my ability to truly commit to the lifestyle changes that I have to make. Because I have never had much success before. I guess I have to come to accept/expect failure in this area of my life. Ahhh......that is sad!
I am just trying to remind myself that WLS is a tool. A tool that I have not had access to before, that will help me to be successful.
I have a date!

I am really excited and a little nervous. Mostly nervous about the unknown. But, I am doing what I can to prepare myself for what to expcect. And to have realistic expectations.
More to come......
