Less than 48 hours to Surgery

Well today is the first day that I am feeling nervous and anxious. I am also very excited to get on the losers bench and feel like things are moving forward. Wish me luck. I will try to post as soon as I can when I get home. Brenda PS> I really enjoyed getting together with so many of you at breakfast. I hope to do it again sometime.

Hey there Brenda,

Looks like, by our pictures ? we are twins...It was really nice meeting you on Sunday (I was the monkey in the middle of the table).   Just keep reminding yourself why you are doing this, and how much better you are going to look and feel when you are a looser!   You will do just fine!  Go get'em girl!

It is normal to feel nervous and anxious and excited--all at the same time! Best of luck on your successful surgery and recovery!

Brenda, I will think good thoughts for you....you will do great!!!  Breakfast was great! debra

Brenda: Good luck on your surgery.  You will do fine. Peggy

Hi Brenda - it's normal to be nervous.  I thought I had it all under control and I swear I almost jumped off the table on the way into the operating room and said, I can't do this!  I'm really glad I went through with it though.  Being lighter feels great!  Best wishes for a successful surgery and speedy recovery. Linda

Brenda, It's your big sis.  Everything will be fine.  I can't wait to welcome you to the losers bench, scooting on over for the next loser.  I will be there every step of the way.  You can give your friends my # to call and check on you if you want.  It is normal to be nervous and anxious all at the same time.

Love ya,

Boggie

Hi Brenda, it was so fun to meet you on Sunday! I'll be thinking about you tomorrow-I'm sure you'll do great! I remember how nervous I felt, too. Like Linda, I thought I was cool with everything, but once I changed into my gown and lay down on the hospital bed, I burst into tears! But of course everything went incredibly smoothly and I was very well taken care of. You're in excellent hands and you'll be fine. You've already come such a long way-I'm sure it felt like this day would never come, and now suddenly it's here. I'll be sending a prayer your way tomorrow, and please make sure to have someone update us here on the board. Take care, Lisa

Brenda, it's normal to feel like you do.  I'm sending good vibes and best wishes for a smooth surgery and an easy recovery.  You'll be on the losers  bench before you know it!  It was great meeting you on Sunday.

I wish you all the best on your surgery! Let me know how it feels to be on the losers bench. I can't wait to be there myself.
