OMG, it's almost here!

My surgery is this Wednesday! Wow, I can't believe it's almost here!

 

I'm on my 1st day pre-op 2-day liquid diet and I was dyiiing this morning. I'm feeling a lot better this afternoon but I know it's going to start all over again tomorrow. Ugh! Thank goodness it's only for 2 days.

 

I hope my liquid diet post-op isn't as horrible. Man, I'm scared. I don't want to cheat and make myself sick!

 

I have so many worries about this and I don't know why I'm panicking so much. I'm just so afraid that I'm going to fail at this. Or what if the band slips or what if I have a defected one and I have to have it removed?! Can I really go through the emotion of losing my band...losing all hope on changing my life? Aaah!! I don't ever get deep but there are so many what ifs in my head. One thing I know for sure is that I want to go through with this, but WHAT IF I fail? WHAT IF it fails me.
