Wow. 5 Days Away

Well, I thought I had created a journal already, but apparently not. I can't believe my surgery is only 5 days away!!!! This has been a long time coming, it seems. I remember starting to count down and it was 47 days away. I've done all of my pre-op stuff, except the sleep study. That is tomorrow night. I honestly don't think I need to do it. I think the doc just wants money. But oh well. I have to do it, so I will.

I found what protein drinks I like the best--Muscle Milk and IsoPure. Both taste really good. I was surprised at the MM. I thought I had picked up s'thing wrong b/c it tasted so good. But my dietician, Brittany said it was the right stuff. Woohoo!!! I had the Mint Choc Chip kind and it was wonderful.

My surgery is on Wed, 7/25 at Potomac Hospital in Woodbridge, VA. That is about 2 hrs away from me. I have to be at the hosp at 6am, so we'll have to leave around 4am. My dad will be driving me. I'm not sure if my mom is gonna come or not. Probably not. That's just how she is.

I am so psyched for this and sooo ready. I have prepared myself mentally, spiritually, emotionally, and physically. I am ready to go. I have the Bandster rules down and know that this will go extremely well.

I can't wait!!!

good luck on your surgery. I'll be thinking of you

Congratulations! You are now one of us. Hope you're feeling good soon.

Take care.
