Two More Days Until The Big Day!

After two weeks of midterms at school, spring break is finally here! No Cancun vacation for me though. One full week off without worrying about anything but my surgery on Thursday. During midterms, my mind was completely off the idea of my surgery; so now I have been spending the first few days of spring break buying my protein and liquids.

 

I had to read through and initial the consent form that thoroughly explained all the possible complications and risk of my surgery which left me feeling worried and anxious. My mom's worries about the surgery didn't help my anxiety. But after speaking with one of the members of my support group and reading through tons of success stories on here I am finally calm about my surgery. Obviously nervousness is normal before a major surgery, but I am finally back to that excited state I was in before that consent form.

 

Tomorrow I start my liquid diet for 24 hrs before my surgery. I'm going to try to keep myself busy so I don't think about food. I've been enjoying the really warm weather with my dog, Lily, by taking her to the dog park Monday and the dog-friendly beaches in Connecticut today. I think we'll head upstate to walk by the Hudson River. I really love spending my days off with her because I don't get this chance so much while in school.

 

Pre-Op photos and measurements to come!
