Congratulations!

It all seems a lot more real once you have a date, doesn't it?

Don't let the nerves throw you. After so long prepping, the idea of actually DOING the surgery can scare you. My personal theory is that after months of chasing down specialist appointments and testing and this and that, there is nowhere for all that energy to go except to escape into anxious-land.

Breathe. Do some nice things for yourself - go for a walk, have a pedi, go through your clothes and sort the sheep from the goats - I'm sure there are things in all of our closets that we've outgrown. Sort them by size and you'll have an idea of what you have as backup as you shrink. I did some batch cooking ahead so Huz would have something to eat while I was on liquids.

hang in there, you're in the home stretch!
