Can I just say....

that I've been feeling absolutely fantastic this past week? I don't know if it is because I'm so excited about the upcoming surgery (Monday April 28) and am at peace with my decision (and the possibility, however tiny, of not making it out of surgery). I don't know if it is because over the past month I have been more diligent than ever about taking my meds EVERY day (I'm on meds for high BP, high cholesterol, allergies and depression) and have added a daily regimen of two chewable Centrum vitamins and a B-12 sublingual tablet. I just feel great. I'm happy. I haven't had "down" days like I'm prone to have. Maybe it's all this beautiful GA sunshine. I think my depression was worsened by seasonal affective disorder during the three years we lived in England. We rarely had anything other than a gray sky. I feel like things are right with the world. And I'm ready for my rebirth.

Hey my surgery sister....I feel the same way you do and I also have been really on target with my meds and vitamins. Funny.....I've been following my high protein diet and losing weight with it...can you believe that. I am so ready for Monday. I can't wait.

  I can't wait!!!

It's awesome to go into surgery with a positive outlook. We'll be sending love and peace your way! At 3/12 months post op I'm so happy and grateful. It is a new world!
