monday is the day!

Hello all- my name is sara and i am new to this whole thing. I am secheduled from sergery on monday and i have never been so excited, scared and terrified. I am really excited for three to four months after the sergery. I am really scared that i will not loose the ten lbs. that is requoired to loos before the sergery. I am terrified of the pain after. I am 24 years old and i am a successful business woman whom is excited to kick off the rest of her life after sergery, including a marriage, a bathing suit and eventually children. I have had some hard times and have to loose a few more lbs before monday it is now wednesday. I am going to go walking and eat really healthy. I am sort of frusterated becasue i would really liek to go eat a load of junk before i cant eat it ever again. but i am not i have been really good and have been eating my protein and such. I am just wanting someone whom can tell me what to expect and how i am supposed to react - i would really like a valium now to get me through the next few days. I am really exjoying reading through everyones postings and information. Helps a lot. Wish everyone the best! I will post after the sergery.

Best wishes for your upcoming surgery and a successful recovery. Patty

Good Luck My Surgery is scheduled for Tuesday. I too am excited. We will talk on Thursday to see how we came through it I am sure it will be fine. My prayers are with you. Viki

i will definately say a prayer for you and we already know how beautiful we are!! congrats on the new you! i will check back with you.

My surgery was the 16th. Today is the 25th and I feel great. You really don't feel hungry and i am finding it necessary to schedule my 1/4 cup meals. lol. If you are that nervous about going into the surgery, I'd ask the doctor if you could have some medication to calm yourself prior to going to the hospital, I did and felt much calmer. I will be praying for you and your recovery. Barbara

I am scheduled for Monday as well and my emotions are a little of everything too. Excitement, anxiety, fear, terror and elation. I don't know if I am more nervous about the surgery or about the substitute teacher in my classes for the next few weeks.
