The count down is on!!!

I am in the single digits now! 9 days until my surgery!!! I am excited nervous and scared. I have cancelled 2 outings because I will be on the liquid diet and unsure how I would handle those situations! I am SO ready for this next phase of my life. I feel like I have a very bright future and my little 9 month old will one day say, who is that lady holding me?? Oh mommy that is you?? LOL!!!

I am SO glad I found this forum with such wonderful people!

Kabranda good luck! Let me know how you are feeling!!! Are you staying overnight? I plan to come home that day. I am only doing 5 day liquid diet. Not mandatory but I wanted to, to give me a jump start. Keep us informed of how you are doing!

Yay! I am so excited to continue watching your journey. I'm 22 days out. Its all so crazy isn't it???? What a great gift to give yourself and your baby. Best of luck!

Lynda - good luck, I'm seeing a surgeon today for my first consult so its exciting times. I am also worried about the pre op liquid diet as our life is sometimes hectic on the social front so timing for me will be something to fit in as well, but if I could I'd have it done tomorrow!!

Kabranda - good luck for your op....I'm feeling apprehensive for you already!!

Good luck on your surgery. Its coming up fast! My VSG is tomorrow!!!! It will be here before you know it.

Congrats! I am 11 days out and growing more nervous by the day. I am starting to have trouble sleeping with the anticipation of the surgery and preparing everyone at work for my time off. Things are so hectic!

Lynda, I'm doing the Happy Dance with you as we count down to your surgery. I'm so excited for you to be on the Loser's Bench with us!!

Good luck! I'm just a few days behind you -- two weeks to go for me! I'm like you -- SO SO SO ready to get on with it!! Know that I'm here rooting for you!
