Excited :lol: Nervous :wacko: and Scare !!!!!! :(:blink: Are you?

honestly? Only nervous about something happening and leaving my kids without a parent. That is my only fear.

I feel the same way about feeling like it might not happen. I'm not really believing it til they are wheeling me back.

What are the thoughts going through everyone else's heads now that the 15th is around the corner??

hoping the worst doesn't happen, can't believe it is finally finally here, last night I was having those crazy hunger induced insane thoughts, I was thinking, WHAT IF I DON'T LIKE MY NEW SMALLER BODY, I'VE NEVER BEEN NORMAL SIZE, WHAT IF IT TURNED IT THAT I LIKED MY BIGGER BODY BETTER? but I know that's just stupid, I have to do this to keep from getting diabetes, my knees going out, so I can have energy, feel better, look better, and most importantly LIVE.

I Know me too! My girls are my best friends and I want to be there to see them grow up!

Yes, I'm def worried about that whole "leaving my kids without a mom" thing. But obviously I'm not THAT worried, or I wouldn't go through with it. I left my DH a list of "instructions", just in case. Like, remember to register for summer camps in January. Here is how you make pancakes. Find someone to help you shop for their clothes. Etc. etc. :)

On another note, have you guys ever noticed how delicious chicken broth is? It really is the FULL ESSENCE of chicken. :)

I agree. I'm the only present, acceptable parent they have. Good point, we must not be THAT nervous or we wouldn't do it. Broth, I can't believe I'm saying This but this pre op diet has made me picky. I've never been picky so this is new to me. I don't care for any of the 5 different broths I bought, my protein powder is too too too sweet, I really only like my eas carb control and my powerade zero in blue n strawberry and my sugar free popcicles ( I don't normally do sweet stuff and never cared for jello. I can't believe im picky.

1 day and 2 nights!!!!!!!!! I'm so nervous but mostly excited! Still waiting on that call from the hospital and for some reason I feel hungrier than ever?! I think it's just because I'm so antsy. I have reoccurring "what if's" in my head but I'm trying my best to focus on all the good that's about to come!

I have been the same way hungry, hungry! Me to the "what if's" are driving me nuts. I am also trying to focus on anything else I can do but it's hard.

I'm having those, I don't want to give up this food or that food, even though I have been pretty good at low carbing it for quite some time. I think I have more of a quantity problem instead of quality. But when I see food commercials or have food thoughts the last few days I can't help but swoon for whatever feeling I get that drives me to eat so much. Ive said it before my stomach has always been larger than normal even as a kid. So I can't wait to not need so much food to satisfy my appetite.

We are all having the some thoughts, my biggest fear is also leaving my kids with out a parent. And the other one is what if I don't like the way I look when I am skinny. I think I have noticed more food commercials in the last two days then ever. I can't even believe the day is almost here. I am leaving everything in gods hands, praying for everything to come out good.
