1 month to go!

Yesterday I met with the Doctor for the last time until I have VSG surgery. My husband is my support person so he was with me at the visit. Just had a few more questions that the doc answered and then met with the dietitian to go over my pre-op diet. I'll be on a low carb (40 carbs) diet for 2 weeks before the surgery. Most of us that are on this journey know all about low carb diets (Atkins, South Beach) so I think I can manage it. The only problem is that I have a Las Vegas trip planned for the week before my VSG.....I'll have to steer clear of the buffets!!!!
I kinda feel like I did before I had a baby.....I have a great "nesting" instinct. I'm cleaning my house, getting post-op supplies (protein drinks, etc). I guess in a way I'm giving birth to a whole new life......and I'm 10% scared but 90% excited !!
