Tomorrow -- Preop Appointment

Feb 20, 2011

Oh gosh, now I get nervous.  I know sorta what's going to happen tomorrow. I am 17 days until surgery so I have to start the lovely preop diet and all that junk.  Tomorrow I find out what that intales.  I don't know why I am nervous, I think I am nervous and excited mainly.  Ready to start this new chapter in my life.  Ready to live and love life.  Ready to love photographs being taken of myself again.  Ready for a lot of things that I haven't done in a long time or ever in some cases.  I am 25 years old and in a couple of weeks I will be well on my way to a brighter future.  My only hope is that everything goes well and that seeing my success (hopefully) my husband will deciede to have Sleeve too.  I want him healthier too.  I can't wait for my best friend to take me to Hollister to go shopping -- it's her favorite store and I have only ever walked in there to buy her gift certificates for Christmas.  I set my goal today of 140 lbs.  I would like to weigh that.  That puts me in the "normal" BMI range, not overweight, not obese, just normal.  I've never set out to be a skinny Minnie size 2.  I would be ever so happy with a size 8.  I guess that's what all of this boils down to.....I am so ready to get to my end result.  I am ready for the new life.  As far as I know, people with the Sleeve surgery feel tons better even by the time they go back to work and they see a significant difference in 6 months.  So ready for that.  Ready for people from high school to no longer recognize me (in a god way).  I can't wait!  Wish me luck tomorrow! Oh and luck for Tuesday too, I have all my preop labwork to do at the surgery center.
