    I've told no one other than my emergency contact and I've had some second thoughts about that decision ? I feel zero guilt about not sharing. In fact, I feel good about deciding what's best for me and moving forward. This is personal. There's no obligation to share with anyone else. I'm right there with you on this one.

    Surgery in the morning as well. 6am report time. Not really nervous. Was rather calm all day minus one issue with the surgeon's office. Debating taking a laxative tonight so I can have one final BM in the morning before surgery. Bag is packed. Still only one friend knows. Brother taking me in for surgery, but he doesn't know which surgery and he doesn't usually get in my business. And he keeps stuff to himself. Just took my final "before surgery pic" in work clothes. Have not weighed myself since starting the pre-op diet. I guess I will know my weight at the hospital in the morning. Drinking a LOT of water today. This weekend was the first time I actually thought about food during all this. I think I messed up yesterday by thinking about food losses and eating a treat. That triggered thoughts about food. I haven't been hungry during the 2 week pre-op diet. And I liked the protein shakes, until today. So, my advice - dont cheat at the very end, lol. And my dental issues finally got resolved so I feel more comfortable presenting for surgery tomorrow without concerns about dental issues and anesthesia. Sorry for the book. I haven't told many people so this is the place that I get to share about my journey.

    I'm reminding myself of all of the reasons this is good for my health. Still nervous about having surgery and hoping there will be no problems healthwise afterward. It's the fear of the unknown. I'm scheduled for 4/12.
