I'm so excited to be this close to surgery. I don't have a date yet. I go back to the surgeon on Jan. 8, 2014. I expect we will set a date then (hopefully). January 29 ends the 3 month "diet" period. So I think I'm looking at surgery in February.

I like to think as myself as excited, but when reality hits I get a little uneasy. How are you mentally preparing yourself? For some reason I am nervous about how I am going to handle the minutes and seconds before surgery. Like waiting in the OR for them to put me out. Idk why this is the thing my brain is dwelling on! Lol. I am almost hoping they put me out and THEN take me in to the OR. Wait, do they? Because that would be great xD

I just don't think about that part of it. My biggest fear is the IV. I faint. They scare me. You know what my surgeon said about that? She laughed and said "that's ok, you'll be lying down when u get it" lol.

I could worry about it now, but me worrying isn't gonna do anything to change things. So I don't. I'm sure as I get closer, like the day before, I'll start to get more nervous and worry, but I'm gonna just let the excitement in for now.

Yeah, I'm still far too excited about all this to be nervous yet.

I feel bad now Bc I get to eat lean protein n veggies on my preop. I ate some shrimp and some spinach. But it's such a tiny amt I'm allowed that it just makes me want more. It's almost worse than saying I can have nothing

Don't feel bad. I'm barely above the BMI cutoff to have surgery and today my doc told me to not lose anymore weight. He said I could eat a regular dinner tonight and tomorrow but I didn't do it because I don't want to. Weird, right? I am afraid it will make me overdo it. So I had an extra greek yogurt and will add a fourth shake to my days. Ugh.

Omg. I feel like I'd be so torn on that. Yes go out on a high (food coma) note, or be a food kid and follow my diet... Oh god. The angel and devil on my shoulder would have a good fight about that!!
