Two Days!

I am just two days away from surgery and it seems like it got here so fast. I remember writing on here that I knew I was approved but hadn't heard from Debi yet. Now here I am, just hours away from surgery and still very excited.

I am doing the blended liquid diet and that is going well. Have all my vitamins, prescriptions and "stuff" I am taking to the hospital. It just seems like it's going to be here before I know it.

Thank you all for being here for me and keeping me in your prayers. I will try to post again before surgery day, but if I don't, I will be back as soon as I can and let you know how it went.

Have a great week!

Carol

The time realy does fly by. Congrats. Like others said sip, sip, sip and walk, walk, walk. Those are the two best things you can do. Keep us updated on how you're doing.

Thanks to all of you. I am really excited and no nerves yet. Some people at work asked me today if I was nervous and I told them that I have struggled so long with my weight that it's more excitement than nerves that I feel. This just seems to surreal to me because I have tried and failed at so many diets................like I'm sure many of you have done as well. Probably when I am hopping on to the operating table, I will feel nervous, but only because I don't know what to excpect.

Just about 36 hours from now and I'll be on that operating table so I'll know what to expect before long.

Thanks for your support and well wishes. I am grateful for all of you!

Carol
