Tomorrow is the Big Band Day

I can't believe tomorrow is the day. My first appointment with Dr. Wright was back on January 13. It has moved really quick. The last 2 weeks I have been on protein shakes twice a day and one low carb meal, usually dinner. I have had sugar free jello and frozen treats some. Usually in the evening I have one snack, either pork skins or peanuts. I have my prescriptions filled already, liquid meds for nausea and liquid meds for pain. I have read that the pain is pretty bad, so I am a bit scared!!! I go back and forth from being really excited and ready, to feeling sort of depressed, like "why has it come to this"?, why can't I do this without surgery. I guess like everyone I have tried everything, lost the weight and then gained it back. Sometimes I even feel a bit mournful for the food I will be missing. Now that is horrible, but wow, there is lots of things I could potentially never be able to eat again. I tell you, I am ready to feel better, get this fat off of me and start living again. I have good support and will get through this tomorrow
..... lovely lovely lil
