what ya doing before????

Yes, only a few more until the big day. I am so excited I have been counting down since March 3's approval. I am going this weekend to buy my robe and get some socks with the non slip grip, and all that fun stuff. I am in a lucky position since my Mom had rny surgery 3 weeks ago. I have seen so much first hand and kinda know what to buy and what's a waste. I am spending my last few weeks, smoothering my son with lots of playtime, on the floor playing blocks, outside chasing bubbles and just hanging out. Next weekend, off to San Deigo for camping and the Zoo. I figured we would take advantage of the next few weeks. I have been re-arranging everything at home, cleaning out the closet, the kitchen, doing this big nesting thing. No joke, its like im having a baby not WLS. Ive washed and painted rooms and just you imagine it, ive done it. Im restless!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well I wish everyone good luck and talk soon!!!!!!!!! * whats everyone else doing to get ready???? Laurie Lap RNY scheudled 5/18/05, 18,5 days left...... woo-hooo!!!

And I thought I was the only one nesting! Tammy

I am so restless also, Couldn't sleep last night, and I know that I wont be sleeping Sat and Sunday also. I too have been spring cleaning, and plan on taking a vacation also. Why not right?

Ok so am I in denial??? I am counting down but am afraid to pack my bag!!! Ackk what is wrong with me?? I don't want to be going insane Thursday night but I am afraid if I do anything then something will happen even tho I am all approved and everything! ok someone slap me I think I am just a bundle of nerves!!! hugsssssss Krista

I've been to tired to give a rip about cleaning, to be honest. My inlaws are coming tomorrow and they've never been here before (they're in Indiana and we're in VA) so we're gonna clean like mad people tomorrow. I can't sleep, but am to exhausted to do anything else. Maybe this fasting for Monday's surgery? I plan on spending time with my husband and son Sunday. Trying to tie up loose ends. Answer a few emails. Stuff like that. I already paid bills and such, so I can at least rest knowing that my car will still be here when I get back. I still haven't packed, but don't plan on taking much. Books and such. Two friends of mine had the same surgery and never bothered changing out of their hospital gowns. Said that it was to much hassle with the IVs and such. I am gonna take my Tweety socks with non-slip bottoms I got from my sister for Christmas.

i am getting very anxious and nervous too. I have to start my liquid diet on sunday and i plan to try and clean, organize like you have. It will help keep my nerves busy. I am shopping for my items this weekend. You know, robe, comfy pj's, broth, popsicles, juice, JELLO all that jazz. Just tying to enjoy my daughter and stay focused!!

I've had so many last suppers, it's ridiculous!! I've been to Oregon to see my grown son and granddaughter, and also to Reno for a Poker Tournament. Where are you having your surgery? I live in Corona, and having surgery in San Bernardino. Barb

OMG this is to funny..... I was moving the furniture around in my living room last weekend... Hmmmm thought it was just me......doing all this house stuff....I still have several weeks to go too so i dont have my bag packed. UNFORTUNATLY my surgery maybe moved out by one week. SUCH is life one more week at this point wont kill me. AS for last meals, i cant do that my surgeon likes pre surgery weight loss. NOT WEIGHT GAIN, says it causes complications. I want to be in the best shape i can before surgery! Well hope everyone is fine MUAH! bye

OMG is right! Sounds like we are all in the same boat! I spent last weekend cleaning like a mad woman! And next week-end I'm having a yard sale with all the fat clothes I really secretly HATE!!! Plus all the party platters, chip bowls, you name it stuff......I figure if I make 10 dollars I call it even! LOL......but all this spinning is actually very therapeutic for us ...... we are nesting for our new life! And its OUR BIRTH we are ancipating......or so it sounds/feels like to me! As far as "last suppers"....... my BMI is tooooo high for that....got to prepare for the 24th......its my party! Good luck and God Bless All! Sally
