It's official. My surgery will be two weeks from today. January 26th at 8 am, I will go in to the OR and come out 'banded'. I'm very excited and also more than a little nervous. I'm self pay so I have already had a moment of buyer's remorse, the oh no...what have I done syndrome but i'm over it now. It was just a bit hard to pay all that money out! Ouch!
Today was also day one of pre-op. I think I did ok. I've had two protein shakes, some cottage cheese and a salad with grilled chicken for dinner. My doctor doesn't require all liquids for pre-op but he does require high protein, low carb/fat. I'm maybe a wee bit hungry now but not enough to stress over it. I'll have a popsicle in a bit and then thats it for the night.
I think i'll weigh myself in the am to see if my scale is down :-) I sure hope so! I was down 8 lbs today from the last time I saw the surgeon so thats good!
Peace and love,
