Today is my 29th birthday, and it's also 7 days till my op day! I'm very excited and mostly a, trying not to obsess about it. My goal is to stay as zen as possible prior to the surgery. Any advice on how to do that? Thanks in advance!

Prepare, prepare, prepare...get all your ducks in a row and then just relax and prepare to be skinny!!!

For me, it was prayer! i surprised myself, how calm and serene i was. Thank you Lord!

Thanks guys! I think the tough part is the fact that I have nothing left to prepare, haha. I have had my bags packed for weeks, protein & vitamins set, etc. now I'm just....waiting!!!!

Just meditate on shopping for smaller clothes and running on the beach or sidewalk if your in Dallas like me. Hehe!!

Thanks guys! I think I'm going to bring a ton of fashion mags and lots off meditation videos.

My surgery is scheduled for the 7th, so I am right there with you. I have been doing some recorded, guided meditations and deep breathing (good old fashioned lung expanding type) several times a day. Just waiting...
