I am so happy for you Anna. I am praying for a safe journey through this life changing event. People that have not struggled with this do not know what it feels like to finally get wanted help. You are my inspiration. I was am scheduled for Feb 23. I will think about you as a source of strengh and determination when my struggle gets tough. God bless you and keep you strong.

Hello,

I am so ready for the chance to get my health kick started. I am happy happy happy. Also I thought you only stay in the hospital one day, I was not planning to bring anything by clean underwear.

Yay us.....Feb 1st.,,,It's coming up so fast.  How are you doing on your pre-op diet?  I hope it is going well.  To be honest with you, every now and then, I get this thought...'Boy, I can't wait until this pre-op diet is over. Then I can eat regular again'. Then it dawns on me, hey I still will have a couple of months before I am eating regular food again and even then it will still be different.  Not really shocked about it, just glad I'm getting in a little practice, so I am not shocked all at once.... I guess.

Thanks, it;s day four for me and I think I've done good.  Your surgery is just around the corner too. When do you start your pre-op diet?

I am having my surgery on Monday and I am a little nervous. I have not bought any vitamins as of yet as I go for my last app tomorrow and I am sure they will tell me what to buy. To all of  having surgery shortly have a speedy recovery and praying all goes well.
  

I am so thankful for all I have today. Be happy, Laugh often, Love Lots.

Hey my surgery is scheduled for two days after yours .  Like you I am weaning myself off of caffeine and boy is it hard.  I am way down to what I used to drink.  I opened a can two days ago and only take sips when I start to fill the headache I still have at least a quarter of a can left.  So slowly but for surely.  Now don't get me wrong I still crave it.  I could smell my co-workers DR. Pepper and she said she hadn't opened it yet.  Man did that smell trigger a craving lol.  But I fought it and won!

Topic: RE: February's coming... 2nd thoughts ???
My surgery is Feb. 15th, I have no second thoughts as far as the surgery is concerned, I feel that everything is done for a reason, I have faith that the good Lord will see me through this, I only worry about after the surgery with the extra skin and if I am strong enough to maintain my new eating habits.
