Just Getting Started - feeling flat

I decided to move forward with a RNY a few months ago.  I have had my all day evaluation at Riverside Fresh Start June 14th - psych, nut, and physical.  I had my cardio consult today - will have a nuclear stress test on Tuesday.  I am following my 12 week diet pretty religiously - have lost about 5 pounds. But, I am not excited, scared or feeling any type of strong feeling one way or the other.  I have wondered while I am following the diet whether I will miss my Diet Coke over ice with a straw.   I am incredibily busy at work and with kids home for summer we are pretty busy....so maybe that is why.

Did anyone else move through the process like this or were you feeling excited or nervous or SOMETHING?

I think life just takes precedance over anything else when we are busy. There are so many barriers between you and the "new you" that it's hard to feel emotional until it's more "real".  Also, for me, I thin****pt myself from getting too excited. (you know, didnt want to jinx myself) LOL Anyway, your feelings are YOUR feelings, so of course they are normal for YOU!  Take care and Congratulations! Joan
