I have been scheduled for surgery on 23 September! I met with the surgeon yesterday and imagine my surprise when he told me that I was one of his smaller patients. I am over 100 pounds above my ideal weight!! Sheesh, who'd have thought I would be considered a "smaller" person?! Anyways, I am excited and ready to go. I start my pre-op diet on the 9th of September. Luckily, it is like an Atkins diet...not just clear liquids and such. Just low carbs. I am very happy about that. At least I get to eat somewhat normally. So folks, I am almost to the starting gate of this fabulous (albeit scary) new life!! :w00t:
