Tomorrow is my surgery day, and I am super nervous. Not really sure why, I have had surgery before. I think most of it is because I remember what the gas pain is like. I had my galbladder out and it was the one thing about pain that really stands out to me. I am also concerned about what life will be like after surgery. I of course want to make the change or I wouldn't be doing it, but regardless of that life will now be completely different. I am very much looking forward to feeling better. I already do just being on the liquid diet. I am also looking forward to being able to do things that are very difficult for me right now. Like hiking, sight seeing, traveling, just living day to day. I know that life is going to be much better, and that is what I want. Not to mention the health factors that go with it. I have never been too much into caring about the how I will look part, but I have to admit recently, over the last few days, I have been thinking about what it will be like to fit into clothes that I have not ever fit it. What it will be like to wear my husbands t-shirts and sweats if I want. I am looking forward to that. I am also looking forward to cute clothes.

Anyway, I may update again before tomorrow, if not I will see y'all on the other side!

Good luck on your surgery and remember after surgery to Walk, Walk, Walk.
