Congratulations, Donna N!!!!!
Hello my dear friend, Donna!
Your day is drawing near! I can not believe it.
I am writing this post to you on Saturday, January 3rd. Honey, this is the last Saturday you will be a pre-op.
At this time next week, you will be saying, "What the F%*k did I do to myself?!?!?"
A month from now, you will be saying, "Why the F*&k didn't I do this sooner?"
A year from now? Well....a year from now you will be saying, while wearing your size 6 pants, "Damn, I look hot!"
Donna, in all seriouslness, I am so, so happy for you. I truly am. I can not wait to be there for you, as you go through this amazing journey and watch the pounds and inches melt away.....I promise to be the absolute best angel I can be. My wings are getting ready at this very moment.
How are you feeling? Excited? Nervous? Happy? Scared? All of the above?? That's my guess! I remember, and I look back to my online journal all the time to when I was days away from surgery, that I had such mixed emotions! It was such a crazy feeling! The day of the surgery is surreal. When you get there, you may feel an overwhelming sense of "get me the hell out of here!" And if you do, just remember that you made this decision in sound mind; that you researched the hell out of this surgery and you are going to do great! You may have a feeling of overwhelming peace and contentment....Whicever feelings you experience, they are normal!
I was scared out of my mond the morning of. When they put my IV in I really got scared. They gave me a TON of sedation before I even went into the OR. They wanted me as comfortable as possible before I went in. If you feel panicky or scared, ask them for something to take the edge off. They will happily oblidge, I'm sure.
Before you know it, you will be on the o"other side" and on your way to a slimmer, healthier you! You are already gorgeous, but damn girl, imagine how drop dead you will be slimmer! WOWZA!!!!
I am honorerd that I am your angel and I can not wait to come visit you in the hospital. Of course, if you are not up to visiters, I will not be offended at all; I would totally understand. I felt like utter **** for the first 2 and 1/2 days. By day 3 I felt like myself again, and was up to visiters. But those first 2 days were awful, so you just go with the flow!
I will see you Monday, my pal. TAKE A LOT OF PICTURES AND DO YOUR MEASUREMENTS! Don't forget to do this because it is such a fun thing to measure each month and see the diffference, as well as take monthly pictures in the same poses you did pre-op, and see the dramatic changes! Donna, seriously, get that camera out!
Love ya,
Denise
