ever since late yesterday afternoon, I have been so nervous about my surgery on the 30th.

the hospital called yesterday to confirm my pre op appt tomorrow and I just can't stop thinking about it. we spread out all the papers about post op last night and read through them again..

im not scared of the surgery, just nervous and excited about the procedure, about all the changes, etc..

but hey, if I can make it through three weeks of liquid pre op, I should be able to make it through anything, right?? :-)

I'll admit to being scared about the surgery... having severe sleep apnea and being put under scared the daylights out of me. But, in the end it was all worth it. Once you go home you'll realize that it was all worth doing, and you'll be glad the hospital part is behind you... :)

Nerves are a normal phase to LBS. There'd be something wrong with you, if you weren't a little nervous about the changes you're about to face.

Just know, its worth it!

Try to keep your mind on the knew and improved, healthier you. About cleaning out closets and drawers dozens of times ( think I've done that approx 7times now).

Keep your mind on the positive!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
