Monday, Monday April 4th

I have waited, and waited, and finally, Monday is almost here. I am looking forward to having my surgery and finding myself on the losing side. Everyone please say a little prayer for me. I can hardly wait. I know I won't get any sleep this weekend. I already have sleep apnea. Now this waiting too? Oh my stars. Wish I could just relax. See you on the losing side. Yvonne

I will keep you in my thoughts this weekend and on Monday. I know that next weekend will be just as bad for me!

Hey Yvonne, Good luck on Monday. Don't worry all will be well. I know how you feel though, I'm on pins and needles. My surgery is April 6th. Kelly

Yvonne, At 8:00 Monday morning I too am having surgery. I have waited an entire year for this day. I have jumped through sevral hopes, made a thousand phone calls, and stressed myself, my friends, and my family out waiting for this day. I know exactly how you are feeling. I too can hardly wait to be on the other side of all of this. I made a list of all of the foods I wanted to eat and the restaurants I wanted to go to before Monday. I have been working my way through them for about two weeks now. The funny thing is, after I order, I can hardly eat. I have lost 10 pounds in the past 3 weeks without even trying. I think my stomach is a little nervous and is preparing itself for a lot less food. Whatever the reason, I will take a 10 point loss any way I can get it. I will try to check on you next weekend after we are both home from the hospital. Good Luck! Karen Hull

My surgery is on 4/4 as well. I will send prayers your way!! I have already lost 19 pounds, as my surgeon required 2 weeks post op all protein. It's nice that my pants are already lose. I'm looking forward to getting all new clothes!! Good luck! Lisa

Yvonne, We will all pray for each other. The sleep Dr. office wanted to do me the night before surgery to get a flow rate on me, I told them that I probably wouldn't be able to sleep. They scheduled it anyway. I figured what the heck, it would give me something to do instead of tossing and turning and keeping my husband awake! natalie

I'm another Monday gal Yvonne! Nerves abound here! Luckly mine have only set in today, up until now I said I felt like someone is throwing a BIG party in my honor on Monday at 8am, but today it's all doom and gloom, horrible thoughts, I'm afraid to sleep because of what I might dream!!! Best of Luck to you and all the other Monday people. Kim C.
