This Is It! Surgery Today!

This is it guys! I have to be at the hospital in about 6 hours. I'm laying in my bed now trying to sleep but I'm far too anxious- combination of excitement and fear. Wish me luck all! Can't wait to be on the losers bench!

I'm always so excited when I see people post that they are hours away!! Relax and think good thoughts. Remember that this is just one more step towards becoming as beautiful and strong outside as you are inside!! Enjoy this victory.

Congrats FallenAngel! I remember that excited feeling the night before surgery. I don't think I even got an hour of sleep. Good luck tomorrow!! Keep us posted as best you can.

Thank you all! I was able to get a bit of sleep- fell into a deep sleep and when my alarm went off I almost didn't want to get up until I remembered what today was lol. Up now about to take a shower with the antibacterial soap the hospital gave me. I'll check in when I can! Thanks SO much everyone for the support!!

Just want to let everyone know I'm okay! I didn't have wifi at the hospital and my Internet connection wasn't good so I had to wait until I got home. The first two days were rough I'm not gonna lie. I was prepared for it but it still threw me for a bit of a loop. The pain was bad but the nauseous made it worse. Today was a LOT better. No nausea! So I was finally able to start eating and they saw I was okay to go home. The pain is still there but it's just very sore. There's a big dent and that's the most painful spot. The other ones are just tender. I know in a few more days ill be a lot better. That morphing pump was my BFF for a while lol. I was sad when they cut me off. Put me on Tylenol with codine now. I'm not hungry but I think there's trapped air in my sleeve because I keep feeling it contact and it hurts for a second and feel like I need to burp? It's going to take some getting used to lol.

Thank you all who showed me support, encouragement, messaged me- it means so much to me! Wanted to check and and let everyone know I'm ok!
