Happy New Year Everyone!!!! 

OK, I am going in for surgery January 19Th.... Wooo Hoooo I am SOO excited if you all can not already tell. But, I have a question... The past couple of days, I have had this ridiculous amount of energy... getting ready for surgery. I have managed to...

1. paint my bathroom.
2. re arrange my living room
3. reorganize my kitchen (food) cabinets
4. reorganize my cabinets with all my dishes in them
5. Get rid of any lingering laundry in the basement
6. Go out and buy 3 pairs of new pajamas and slippers
7. Go out and buy a timer, thanks to someones suggestion and 3 oz disposable cups.
8. Went out and bought Birthday, baby and anniversary cards for all those people who will celebrate while I am recovering.
9. And even went out and bought my sons Valentines and Valentines candy for school!!! 

As if that is not enough, there are other things too.

I was just wondering, Has anyone else gotten like this? I know I am a prepared person, but my goodness! I am just so excited I think I can't stand it! 

When I feel down in the dumps I come on this website and read through things. I look at before and after pictures and some make me cry but for all of this I am so appreciative. To all of you out there post op, your amazing!!!!!

Take care everyone!!! Happy New Year

XOXOXOX Charlotte

First off...welcome

Second...i am also the 19Th.

Third....OMG WOMAN!! 
I was that way when my kids were little and b4 i had a full time job outside of the house. ( use to be a full time stay at home mom...that's the hardest job there is...you never get to clock out or take a vacation!!!) Now..my kids are old enough to do most of the stuff around here
(age 11 and almost 13) and i work nights...I'M FREAKING TIRED & DEPRESSED ALL OF THE TIME!!!

I HOPE that when i start my liquid diet on MONDAY...that i will do stuff like that to keep busy and not dwell on the fact that i am HUNGARY. I am a GREAT list maker...so i have a LONG list of stuff i WANT to do b4 my surgery. Laundry is one of them...taking down all the Christmas crap...well that should of already been done...LOL...but its not so that has to be done. I want to organize my bedroom  and put a bunch of stuff in my daughters closet ....she has the biggest closet and for some reason...always has her clothes on the dang floor!!!! Go figure!!!

Any-who...I am supper excited to have anotehr JAN 19Th gal on here!!

Bottle up some of that egery and sell it...LOL  Sounds almost like that nesting instinct that you get right b4 you have a baby...LOL. WLS is kinda like having a new baby...your starting a new life..like having a new birthday!!  I must sound insane...i gotta go to bed...LOL

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO YOU!!!!

I am also on Jan 19th. I was so glad to find this website, I have been able to learn alot from it. I know what you mean about the energy I have days where I can't sit still either. I do think it is because we want everything right for while we are away.

I am getting EXTREMELY excited and a little nervous. I start the liguid diet on monday so I think it will really sink in the this is really going to happy...YIPPPEEEEEEE

well good luck to you and keep in touch

Good Morning Lynn,

Everyone keeps asking me if I am getting nervous and I can honestly say no... But, ask  me next week and it may be a different story. I start my liquid diet on Monday as well... Not really looking forward to that, that much.... but you got to do what you got to do.

Feel free to add me to your friends list.... Take care and good luck.

 

Have a great day,
Charlotte
