I had met the surgeon today to get the go-ahead for surgery and to purchase my Optifast.

And of course to get my surgery date...

October 11. AHHH!!

I was a little freaked but the shock is wearing off and excitement is creeping back.

IT minus eight days until the pre-op diet!

Congratulations !

It's super exciting to be so close to a new start.

And... Optifast isn't that bad either. I am on my final day of it.
