Tomorrow I'll be a loser

I feel like a kid on Christmas. I have a RNY scheduled tomorrow at St. Vincent Carmel with Dr Evanson. Took awhile to get to this point but I think the wait and careful consideration has prepared me better. I am excited to get on with a life where food isn't the center of attraction. I said so long to some of my "old friends" last night. I don't know which old friends.... pop, ice cream, pizza, steak, peanut butter.... gave me the wicked heart burn as a going away present. I figure I'll be too preoccupied with getting acquainted with my new stomach to miss the old food alot. So as I sit writing this I prepare to eat the last solid food I will eat for awhile and look forward to the liquid diet. My approach on this is to learn something from each step of the journey. Thanks for the posts on this site. I have read alot and learned alot from each one of them. They said I should be out of the hospital by Monday or Tuesday (having it done open.... guess that lengthens the stay) so I will say see ya till then.

I'll be down there tomorrow for a plastics consult, What times your surgery? Sarah

The surgery is for 2:30 but they told me to be there at noon. I live alittle over two hours west so I'll probably be there even before then. Doubt if I sleep much tonight either.

Good luck tomorrow. Here's wishing you a safe surgery and speedy recovery! Cindy

Got a call when I got home from work. They moved my surgery up to 12:30 now so will have to be there at 10:30
