I think this is the "holy cwap" moment

Today was the pre-op with the surgeon, tomorrow the fun pre-op diet begins.....14 day count down...I have to make an appointment at the hospital tomorrow for pre-op testing.

 

They gave me a prescription to fill for a blood thinner that I have to administer myself via a needle post op. Ummm, I hate needles....if they are given to someone else, I don't have a problem LOL So, this should be interesting.

 

after looking at the syringes in the box, I just stared at them feeling a bit dumbfounded.....and started to shake.....seriously, this just got real. Holy Cwap! (substitute the W with an R if you like) LOL

 

For a brief moment I got the "what the heck am I doing" feeling......but it was a fleeting thought....all the benefits of having WLS came rushing back, thank goodness!

 

I'm definitely anxious, no doubt about it.....nervous energy.....and yes, I already have a few things packed for the hospital LOL

 

Good night!

Hi Patty...I'm traveling next Monday and having my surgery next Tuesday. This week I'm trying to work as if everything is normal and this huge change is not about to take place in my life. Although I'm not having any anxiety about the surgery I am full of anxiety about the days after.

"What if I don't lose much [or anything]? What if I lose in all the wrong places? Is this going to make my face look even older and more wrinkly? Will I ever eat pizza or a burger again?" and so on. So...I'm with you on the "Holy Cwap!" sentiment.

Here's wishing you the best of luck in the days to come. Have a lovely journey and BE WELL!

The Lovenox shots are easy. By pinching the fat (hard) they really DO NOT hurt -- you don't even have to watch. They'll teach you how during your hospital stay...
