Hey! My name is Jackie. My surgery is scheduled April 2 and in super nervous! It would be really cool to find someone to share this journey with.

It is so hard to focus!! I feel like the prep for surgery is consuming my life! Between the carb counting for the Atkins diet, stalking this site (and others) for any new info I might have missed, ordering post op protein powders and sugar free syrup flavors, food scales, vegetable steamers, cookbooks, etc., it's all I think about!! And it's been this way for at least the past two weeks. I'll be relieved next week once the pre-op planning is all behind me!

Well I already have steamers and sugarfree syrups. Vanilla bean is the best. And what not. I find myself worrying about what I will pack for lunch after surgery lol. I work in accounting. I have bank recs and things to be done before I'm off. So I need to focus. Between that and covering off for other employees that are away. I'm swamped!! I've been prepping for this for 18 months.
