Tomorrow is the day!
Here I am, on clear liquids, waiting for my magnesium citrate to start working. I am not like others who have this high excitement level about their surgery, nor am I dreading it. This is my second time going thru this process, the first one not making it to surgery since one of my daughters became very sick. I am glad I did not have the surgery back in '07. I was not ready. I am thankful that I did more research this time, found the surgeon that I did, and had to do all the work that I have been doing since last July. I still wonder what it is going to be like, because, it seems I have all this knowledge now but I am not going to truly understand it all until I am on the other side of the surgery. So, right at this moment, come what may, I am at peace with my decision to have WLS. I am at peace with who my surgeon is. I am at peace with the changes I am going to have to make when I come out of surgery. How will I feel a week from now, I do not know, but right now, at this moment, I am at peace.
What a lovely post... I'll be thinking of you tomorrow and congratulations on making it to this point. No matter how you feel post-op, just know it gets better in time. It took me a few weeks to get back to my semi-normal self! :D Best wishes!

Sorry I didn't see this last night - but this morning you are certainly in my thoughts. I hope this goes well for you - and I'm certain you'll have lots of feelings, but be prepared - life gets pretty great!
All the best.
All the best.
