only 2 more weeks!!

Jul 10, 2009

omg! i'm sooo excited! my surgery date is just 2 weeks away...not too long ago this all seemed like a major impossibility and now it's right around the corner...

it's hard to imagine i can look much different that i do now, i guess i'll just wait and see.

i had my pre-op appointment with my nutritionist yesterday.  i thought in the two weeks prior to surgery, i would be restricted to liquids only.  i was thrilled to find out that's not the case!  it will me mostly liquid with a few salads and the like in the mix, but at least i get to eat. and it's cool cuz i love salads anyway. i have to make sure i stock up on protein shakes this weekend, as i'll have to have 3 per day during this time.

my cousin had the same surgery (lapband) in may and told me yesterday that she's down 40 lbs already so that gives me a great deal of hope and optimism.

i don't know what the outcome of this will be, but i will be patient and await the outcome while thinking positive about everything at the same time.

i'll be back soon, with an update...probably the day before surgery to get out my pre-surgery jitters!!

OMG!! i really just can't believe it's really happening.  it just all seems sooo surreal.
