I just wanted to tell yall that I am on my 4th day of pre op diet & I get to have a salad tonight! wooohoooo! never thought i'd be so freakin excited to eat a salad! lol Did great the first 3 days, felt great, had plenty of energy. First night was the hardest. Stay strong peeps we got this!

I wish the month would fly by, I have a month and a week to go. Unfortunately, I had to schedule it that far away because of the upper gi endoscopy the first date they could take me for that was March and the next available date for surgery after that was March 28...I am on pins & needles anxiously awaiting, and I am second guessing myself wondering if I am doing the right thing, should I tell this person or that person...ugh! I know I dont want to tell alot of people because I do not want to hear negativity so I have only told some very close friends who I know will be supportative, but the work thing is what is stressing me out. How do I ask for time off? UGH! March 28th please get here fast!!
