Next to last day
Feb 20, 2011
I'm writing one last blog tonight because I might not have time in the morning. Finally got that darling, precious husband of mine home on Friday and we've had a very nice weekend. The weather has been fantastic, just like spring. Warm and sunny. I've been wearing capris, tees, and sandals for a week now. So the countdown is definitely on now. Less than 48 hours to go. This has been a very busy day for me. Trying to get everything wrapped up and ship shape before we leave tomorrow. I've paid bills, done laundry (still going right now), grocery shopped, etc. Whew. But I'm about as ready as I can manage, so it's time to turn loose of all that responsibility and just concentrate on me. I guess I did okay with my all protein, no carb diet, even if I did avoid those shakes like the plague! I've lost 8 lbs in 2 weeks and as of this afternoon, I was still in heavy ketosis. But--and you won't believe me when I say this--tomorrow is my all clear liquid diet and I can't wait! I bought apple juice and white grape juice and JELLO! Yummy. I am completely and totally sick of chicken and tuna fish. Had my last chicken breast for dinner tonight. Good bye chicken! At least for awhile. So, here's the schedule: we'll leave for Houston around noon tomorrow. Get checked into the hotel and then I start my fun colon cleanse thing around 4 p.m. You can be sure I won't be leaving the hotel again. Ha! Got to be at the hospital at 5:30 a.m., surgery is scheduled for 7:30 a.m., and then I don't know. Surgery is supposed to take about 2 hours (maybe a little longer for mine since I'm a revision surgery), about an hour in recovery and then back to the room.I'm supposed to be getting a private room so my DH can stay with me Tuesday night. I might have to stay 2 nights, so he can decide what he wants to do Wednesday night. Either stay with me again or go back to the hotel. Hopefully all goes well and I get to come home on Thursday. Well, if anyone is reading this, wish me luck! And say a little prayer for me, too, if you don't mind. I'm feeling pretty positive about everything at this point. Just really ready to get it over with.
I'll be back to blog again sometime next week!
