Day before the BIG Day

By PhatmanWalkin

· 837 views

It is nearing 10am here in Norway and I find myself getting things finally into perspective. I will be SLEEVED by this time tomorrow and up bedside with Physical Therapy LOL! I feel ENERGETIC...full of electricity and charged for the day and for everything. In some ways I just can't wait for all the initial poking and prodding to be done with because that is what I know I will hate the most. Post op certainly will be filled with challenges. I am confident. I am right in spirit, I am down 25lbs since I started this thing, and I have nowhere to go but down in weight!!!

I will post possibly the morning of the surgery otherwise I will post a blog post op probably Tuesday.

You can also find me at YouTube under the same name of PhatmanWalkin. I will be posting video journals. I have a playlist for the WLS.

Peace and love everyone and please continue to send your prayers.

Rob

    Now at the hospital. I weighed in at 115 kgs Hmmmm that is just over 250, I guess my last meal put on a few LOL! No worries. It took me 3 hours to get into a room. First I was to be admitted to the surgery ward, then they told me no, go to the hospital hotel, and finally they put me in my OWN room on the surgery ward. AWESOME. Probably won't last, but at least tonight...the most important night, I am alone to reflect and relax.

    Up early, I am told I go to the operating room at 7:20am and the operation is about 7:45. Cool, soon it is done and I can move on to a lesser me. =D
