One Week Until...
Today officially marks one week until my surgery.
I did all of my pre-op testing this morning and barring some bizarre result will be in the OR bright an early on Jan. 31st.
Today I also started my all liquid diet to shink my liver before surgery. So far so good, but its only been six hours 
I'm really gung-ho about it all right now and I just hope my resolve doesn't fail me too soon.
I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. I'm excited to finally be starting on a life journey to being healthy along with a crutch to help me get through the first few months of change. I keep visualizing all the things that I will be able to do soon that I've always wanted to, but never been able to because I was too heavy. I'm nervous because I worry that, at least for awhile, I will be so sick (pain etc.) and weak that I won't be able to do anything at all. I also worry that I won't be able to change my eating habits for good and this will all be for naught. I'm both scared and hopeful to see what the next few weeks will bring.
