  1. January 22nd. 630 am. I'm so excited and totally freaked out. I have no clue what I'm doing and it's like everything I've learned or read has completely leaked out of my head. Making a shopping list now. On top of it all, my mom and husband are trying to tug of war where I will recover at. Home or mom's house. Shew, at least I'm loved. I'm leaving it up to them. I'm happy st either. Any good advice for the shopping list though? And how to feel prepared?

    Got my date. Now I'm scared!

    It's done! Holy crap. I've been home a few days and I'm seeing some favorable results but there is a definite story to all of it. Where to start. OK a week before surgery I weighed 305.5 totally because I ate everything I loved in the week before. I did the all liquid thing for a week which was a miserable trying experience. Got to the hospital at 6 am and everyone was super friendly and helpful. All of the sudden I was having a wonderful dream. Then I was woken. The rest really needs to go to the post op thread so I'll put the rest there. I'm definitely happy is mostly over.

    Definitely! I told everyone. Mom didn't understand till 2 things happened. The first was a doc appt for her in which mom said she needed to lose weight. She's tiny. Weighs maybe 125. So I told her to imagine carrying herself and adding another one of herself to that along with another half of herself. And that made her realize just how miserable this weight really is. Then it was just stopping the worry over the surgery. That just happened 2 days ago when her brother called and was excited about my surgery. She looks up to him so that settled her down a little. I'm on the 4th list now lol. Re-doing lists. lol Keep us updated how you do too!
