9 days 12 hours 10 min 5 sec til Lap Gastric Bypass Revision Surgery

I am so ready for this weekend.

Yeah Yeah Yeah.

I know today is Sunday and the weekend is almost over, but I am talking about next weekend.

See the way I figure is if next weekend is here then the countdown to surgery will be sped up.

Good thinking right?

LMAO.

This 1200 calorie liquid diet I am on has me so tired and light headed.

Even though I get to eat one real meal a day I still have no energy.

I sleep a lot because to do the smallest things wear me out at this point.

Deprivation at its finest..

LMAO.

I saw a post from someone else who has the same surgery date as me so I know that I am not the only one going through this so that is a relief.

We can somewhat suffer through this together instead of in solitude.

Everyone keeps asking me if I am nervous or scared about my upcoming surgery date.

The answer is NO.

I am just hella ready.

I have been under the knife so many times in my life that I could do this in my sleep.

It is kind of like when you have a birthday that you know is approaching and you are patiently counting down the days.

You are aware that you will be getting presents, but just not sure what they will be, but you know that they will be great because they will be yours.

THAT IS HOW I FEEL!!!!!!!

Have an absolutely fabulous day.



Climb 'Til Your Dream Comes True by: Helen Steiner Rice

Often your tasks will be many,
And more than you think you can do.

Often the road will be rugged
And the hills insurmountable, too.

But always remember,
The hills ahead
Are never as steep as they seem,

And with Faith in your heart
Start upward
And climb 'til you reach your dream.

For nothing in life that is worthy
Is ever too hard to achieve

If you have the courage to try it,
And you have the faith to believe.

For faith is a force that is greater
Than knowledge or power or skill,

And many defeats turn to triumph
If you trust in God's wisdom and will.

For faith is a mover of mountains,
There's nothing that God cannot do,

So, start out today with faith in your heart,
And climb 'til your dream comes true!

You're almost there Teena!  I wish you a successful surgery, a speedy recover and may your revision be everything you need it to be!

By the way love the "climb till your dreams come true" poem.  Thanks for sharing.

Please keep us posted on your progress.  

Good Luck.  I will send a prayer for a very successful revision your way. 

Mew,

Thanks for the kind words.

I figured someone would get something from that poem like I did when I first read it.

I will be sure to keep you guys updated.

Thanks once again.

Have an absolutely fabulous day.
