Bag For Hospital All Packed - Ready For Monday 10Th At 7:30Am Cst

so - i was getting really bored last night so i went ahead and packed my hospital bag. Had my pre-op visit with the hospital on the phone yesterday and answered their 100 questions so that's done. Now the anxiety stage sets in for the weekend.....will find plenty of stuff to do to keep me busy and my daughter and granddaughter are driving up so I will get to play with her over the weekend and that should keep me busy!!

So ready to get this new 'me' started and can't wait to throw away all my yucky size 16's away.....maybe I'll bring them to south texas over the holiday's and have a bonfire!!!

Congrats to everyone who's on their way and good luck to all those who are going under the 'knife' next week!! I'm sure we will all be rocking our sleeves in no time!!

Good luck to you Kadie- may your surgery go perfectly and you have a speedy recovery! Be sure to check out the topic, "what to bring to the hospital". I've started a checklist and there were a few things I never would have thought of (chapstick- lips get chapped, sugar free throat lozengers-sore throat from anesthesia- you get the idea!) The best was a small pillow (or stuffed animal) to press on stomach when coughing, etc. for the 1st few days. I love the "no makeup" comments- but I always need a liitle foundation and lipstick to feel human. Looking forward to seeing how you're doing post-op- be sure to post!

I will be the next day, the 11th! Here's hoping that all goes well! Thinking about you!

I am the 10th also in Mexico, knowing we will both sail through
