Getting very excited!!

So I have always had a problem where I never want to get disappointed so I don't let myself get my hopes up. I have been doubting that this would happen, especially because my parents are paying for it. I just kept thinking, "don't get too excited because something may come up and it might not happen":sad:. But on Thursday my Dad called with all the information I needed to pay for my surgery. I called and payed and now all I have left to do is be excited for it!! Now I keep thinking "This is really happening!!!!!" I can't wait!!

I went to the store today and bought a lot of veggies and some meat that I can have on my preop diet (I start that tomorrow). I am ready to do this 100%!!! :thumbup:

I was a little disappointed though because I heard that they will be doing work on the pool at my college so I cannot take my water fitness class, but I immediately signed up for a strength training class instead. I'll have to take water fitness during spring semester. I love that class, especially when we play water polo!!

Well, I guess this is a long blog, but I just needed to write down my feelings! Thanks to all who are reading!!

its great that you doing this now, I wish you good luck. i am also 23 and getting band in next month.

I'm happy for you. . I was banded May 27th and I love my band. I went to the Doctor on July 2nd and I'm down 52 lbs. That weight loss was due to preop diet and my banding. I wish you luck. When are you scheduled for surgery?
