Tomorrow is the big day!

I am excited, nervous, anxious, and just ready! The liquid diet hasn't been too bad, although I did cheat a bit last week. Not too much, or too bad, but I just needed to CHEW something! A few bites here and there, nothing big or fatty. But, I've been really good the past week, and I've lost 9 pounds so far! I've been very busy this week getting the house in order, making meals ahead for hubby and the boys, we even put up our Christmas tree, since it will be hard for me to help for the next couple of weeks.

My surgeon's office told me that I won't go home until Thanksgiving day. I'm not too happy about that, but I suppose they keep you that long for a reason. I asked if I could possibly go home on Wednesday instead, and they said if I am drinking enough and doing certain things on my own then they will consider it.

Good luck to all of you out there who are having your surgery this week! See you on the losers bench!
