I have 8 days to go until my VSG surgery. Yea!! And I am still not the least bit nervous! Just plain excited....I have made my trip to the store and bought what I think I will need for after my surgery....and then some I am sure! This week at work will be crazy busy as I am trying to take care of all of this week and next week's clients. I have been so blessed with such a great clientele and that is the price I pay for taking eight days off of work.

 

My husband is finally starting to come around to this whole surgery thing. I think, at least. His comments are starting to be that of a more positive nature. I am pretty sure that most of what he is feeling is just worry...

 

This week I will also be going to two places to eat that I will very likely not be able to eat at for a very long time to come, if ever....so I am getting it out of my system. LOL One of them is a Mexican restaurant that I have been wanting to go to and never have been. I will be meeting a new friend that I made thru obesityhelp.com She is about 6 weeks behind me with her surgery date. We are going thru this as surgery buddies. I am so excited to finally meet her in person. The other place I am going is to eat sushi with two of my very good friends. I have just recently found a love for sushi, and so I am gonna do it up one last time.

However, I will say this...For the last few weeks I have been cutting my portions WAY back to prepare for the mental challenges I will be facing after my surgery. So that will hold true for this week to come....just a couple of my favorite things in smaller quantities....

Wish me luck! :thumbup1:

I just got home yesterday from having the procedure. If you are traveling for the procedure, I suggest taking some boullion cubes with you for the way home. I flew from San Diego to Little Rock and had such a had time finding anything I could have besides apple juice. Be sure to take the gas x strips, not pills! They will be your new best friend! Good luck and I will be looking to see how you do after surgery!

Cutting back the portions is good preparation for post op.... good luck with your surgery - the next few days will zoom by and you'll be sleeved before you know it.
