Hey Deb, I know exactly how you feel. I've went through periods of being so excited, to being so scared I was second guessing my decision. I know for a fact that I wont be able to lose the weight & keep it off without this surgery, so if I want to get this crap off of me & have a healthy future this is the only option. Right now I am at peace with the idea of the surgery. I say right now, because tomarrow, or even ten minutes from now might be a different story. I have felt good about it pretty much since we had the class last Friday. I hope this feeling lasts up until the day of surgery. It's normal for our emotions to go crazy before & even after surgery. I've heard alot of people say that they question why they did this to themselves right after surgery. We'll be ok. Dr. de la Torre is a fantastic surgeon & he has a wonderful team. But I know it's still scarry.
I will try to come see you before my surgery, we'll probably get to the hospital way early. But if I don't make it before surgery, I expect to have a walking partner waiting for me when I get out & up to the floor. Send me your last name so I know who to ask for at the nurses station.

How was your day? I went to walmart got more shakes,I'm about shaked out,they are starting to get nasty now.Not much longer i keep telling myself as i gag another one down LOL.
I weighed today and have only lost 5lbs since Monday.I feel like i should have lost more.
I had total hysterectomy(sp) in Feb so maybe that has some to do with my moods of being so scared .I also stopped taking my estradiol pill =nice girl pill, lol,about 2 months ago ,so i'm a hormonal nighmare lol.
I believe in and trust our surgeon and his crew.But still scarey.
Whatever time you get there is ok with me i'm sure they will be waking me up around that time to see if i'm resting ok
So go ahead and come on up if you want i'd like to see you before you go into surgery.
As for walking buddies you have a deal,I might me a crawling buddy if we go to far but i'll give it a good try .My last name is Bell.What is your's?
I was out in the garden tonight picking beans,cucumbers,tomatoes,and zuchinni,sweat just a pouring off ,thinking man .if, i just survived this, in this heat i surely got a shot at it Mon lol.
I'm just gonna have to leave it with God or i will be on the nutward monday instead of surgery floor,lol.
Was gonna tell you to hang tough ,and see ya Tues. but, we both are gonna hang tough and see each other Tues.
