EXCITED!!!!!!

Hi Marchers! I am so excited I just cannot contain myself any longer!!!!! I can't believe that I am finally on the final count down to my surgery! This is it second weekers!!! Our time has finally come. The Canaries and First weekers have paved the way and now IT'S OUR TURN!!!!! I think I have been waiting so long to have this surgery that I have had plenty of time to deal with all my fears and now I'm just plain old excited and ready to get it done! I have had a lot of surgeries too so I know what to expect. I think the part that I have fear about is the AFTER surgery part. Will I be able to follow all the rules and eat right? Will I be able to get in enough water, exercise enough, and take in enough protein? Will this really work for me after nothing else has? What will I look like without all this weight, who is under here? I have never really been thin so I don't even know what to look forward to. Will I have a lot of excess skin? Will my boobs ever stand up again? (Not like they ever did before! ) (Sorry men, had to throw that one in!) Will my husband still want to have s** if I have all this skin hanging off me? What will I do FIRST? LOL I think my biggest fear though is that I will be one of those that this surgery fails for. I mean, everything else has failed so why wouldn't this? I can rationalize it all in my head and I'm really handling this all okay but the honest truth is that these fears are there. I just don't let them out much. I know that the more I dwell on them the more I let them control me and I won't be controlled by my fears. So, I am taking my own advice and reading the list of things I want to do when I DO start losing the weight. I just had to put all this down in writing Marchers! It helped!

You have a great attitude! You are going to do so wonderfully! Expect a lot of emotion this week, but the time will pass, probably a bit faster each day. It's going to happen!!!! Joy (3/1)

Carrie, I know what you mean. Not scared just excited, Wondering all kinds of things like how long till I notice some of the weight is gone. What It'll be like not to be the center of all jokes, stares and just be normal (if there is such a thing) I got just about 48 hrs till off to Newpouchland. I'm hopeing to the mayor....lol...We'll I'll be seeing you on the other side Shannon

Hi Carrie, I wish you all the best on your upcoming surgery...you'll do just fine, and know my thoughts and prayers will be with you that day. Looking forward to hearing all about your journey! Take care, Wendy

Wow Carrie - you just took a thousand words right out of my mouth. 'Cept the one on the boobies. Thay's purty much pointin' south already. I'm thinking they may start curlin' under by the time I've lost the weight. Dina --who has a sis who just moved to Palm Springs who promised she would be on the lookout for a good boob doctor for me...... ****o)

I know what you mean Dina! My boobs have pointed south since they started budding!!! LMAO I don't know what it's like to have "perky" ones but if I ever get the boob job done you can bet I'm going to have them ordered up "perky"...LOL Carrie Carrie Quite Contrary (a/k/a CCQC) 3 Days and a Wake Up to a New Life!
