10 Hours Til My Band Day!!!

It's almost time! I couldn't be more excited! After all the researching and agonizing I made a decision, stuck with it, and its finally happening! I feel like its Christmas Eve in June.

 

This opti-fast pre op diet wasn't horrible....I had salad a few days so I wouldn't lose my mind. I'm down 7 lbs. Hopefully that will be enough! I'm super hungry right now but i'm just going to sip on this water until midnight.

 

My mom came up to help me out while I recover because my sweetie is away for 2 weeks for work. Kinda sucks because I want him here but everything happens for a reason I guess. I'm trying not to stress over things that I can not control and his work schedule is and alway will be one of them! Im thankful that my mom is here....I hope she doesn't get on my nerves too much!!

 

Overall, I am in good spirits. Im not worried about the actual procedure.I watched it on Youtube and that really helped a lot! Its weird because ive never been a patient at a hospital and I've watched soooo much ER, Mercy, Private Practice, and Grey's anatomy, that im actually excited about seeing what it really looks like in there! (im such a weirdo!) :-)

 

I would like to thank everyone here for all of there support and willingness to share their successes and failures so openly. It has been a great inspiration to me!!

 

Talk to you soon!!

Good luck. I am excited for you. Right now I have an appointment scheduled next week and I can't wait to find out more on my situation. I am nervous to because if insurance says no I won't be able to have it.
