2 days to GO till surgery !

and I am quietly freaking out !

 

I mean .. it's all quiet .. I am doing the Optifast .. I have lost about 8 kilos on it .. I don't know how much the surgeon wanted me to lose. I did cheat on the weekend and had some salad and a chicken skewer but .. enough of that .. surgery is in 2 days.

It's happening by stealth .. I am too busy at work to think about anything other than work and the days are creeping by.

 

Did I mention I was freaking out ?

 

I thought on Monday I was going so well on Optifast that .. hey .. why the heck would I need surgery? - yeah right ..

 

So now it's 2 days before and ..I Know it's all minimally invasive and safe but .. it's surgery !!!! oh my god ...

 

My manager asked me to attend a really important meeting this week .. and I had to say I wont be in.... I will have to let him know I can't call into the meeting cos .. well .. I'll be on a surgery guerney I guess !

 

Still I wanted to do this on the quiet for work as much as possible you know? Just till I actually get used to what it is that I've done to myself.

 

Hey .. btw . losing 8 kilos feels great .. imagine what a stack more will feel like??

 

I know this is what I need .. I know it's going to be great

 

but .. for now

 

 

WHAT THE HELL AM I THINKING !!!!

 

haha

Good Luck to all the October surgery people!!

we're going look so good..............
