Anyone else freaking out a little yet? What is on the menu for you guys these last few days? What are you doing to stay busy and occupy your mind?

Yep, I'm starting to get a bit nervous. Tomorrow is the day that I have to take the kids to their grandma, then my husband and I fly out in the evening. I had the hardest time trying to find clothes to wear for after the surgery. I didn't want anything that would rub or be too tight on the incisions. I usually wear denim shorts, so I wound up having to pack church clothes! Oh well, at least I'll look good for souvenir hunting and the flight home. I've been eating lots of yogurt and chicken broth. Seems weird, but oatmeal is actually on my pre-op diet. I never would have thought it, but I actually got full eating chicken broth, broccoli cheese soup and yogurt. I could only eat half of it. My husband said that we're wasting our money on the surgery if eating liquids makes me full!!

Tomorrow will be a long day for me! I'm very excited and just want it to be Friday morning already. I know I won't be sleeping at all tomorrow night! I have class for 4 hours tomorrow night...so hopefully that will keep my mind occupied! Good luck Pepper!

Good luck to all of you. I'm sure you'll do great!

Thanks so much Nancy

Just settled into the hotel in San Diego. Leave for the hospital tomorrow morning. So far, no nerves, yeah! But, man am I hungry!! Because we came from Atlanta all I've had to eat today is one yogurt, and lots of water and apple juice. I'm looking forward to not being hungry for a while
