Not yet. I was nervous because my daughter has been sick for 9 1/2 days now (running a fever). We didn't know what it was. I was afraid that I'd have to postpone the surgery if she didn't get better. Luckily, the doctor received some of her tests back this morning and we figured out that she has a UTI. So she isn't contagious (which I was worried I'd get what she had or she wouldn't be better) and she can be treated with meds. Now come Monday I'll probably be nervous.

Last night I didnt sleep well.... For the first time I was worried and nervous. I think it had to do with my mother telling me she didnt agree with the surgery. I dont understand why she would tell me that 3 days away from surgery. The ironic thing is that her and my dad are paying for it....

Wow! Maybe it's her way of saying she's scared for you. The day of my surgery I asked myself, "am I really doing this?"

Tomorrow is my big day as well. I wasn't nervous until this morning. Now I'm a bit nervous but more excited. Clear Liquids have been kicking my butt today. Although I think it's in my head....Good luck to everyone!!

I feel for you! That is really tough to deal with. I had a friend who made some really disturbing comments to me. I won't share those with you pre-op, because I don't want to disturb you! Ha ha. But yeah...people should think before speaking!

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
