and I will be post-op. I am freaking out a little; second guessing if you will. Am I doing the right thing?

Saw the doc today

Jan 19, 2010

I had my final surgeon visit and class today. I lost 5 more pounds for a total of 32 pounds (don't know how that happened) lol   I left my class with my head SPINNING, there is just so much info. I am glad they give out a binder.
Anyhow, it finally seems real and I have so much still to do. Where o where to begin?

2 weeks to go

Jan 18, 2010

This is all so very surreal. Tomorrow is my last visit before my procedure in 2 weeks. I have been trying to get the procedure done for over 7 years and it is finally just around the corner. However, I cannot allow myself to get excited. I won't believe it until I am being wheeled in the o.r. Funny, after all this time I still feel unprepared. Proteins and vitamins and calcium, where do I start?

Also, since the last time I tried getting approved I have gotten married. Before I didn't give much thought to what could happen to me but now I worry for him; not only about what he will think when I start losing the weight but what if something should happen to me? I look at him and think how can this wonderful man who loved me at my heaviest love me when I look like a shar-pei or  who will take care of him should I pass?
 

Anyhow, I don't mean this to be so heavy, this looming surgery has me thinking of my own mortality.
