LezzieLez 180 Posted January 13, 2015 I live in Atlanta and I walked it the length of the airport. I figured since I was on the plane for so long, it was better to get my legs moving. I also went to Walmart after leaving there but I am a pretty tough cookie. I didn't carry a purse though and my carry-on was a roller. I only needed help getting it down from the overhead compartment. I brought my computer but honestly, I could've kept it home. I used my phone the majority of the time.

shizwiz 197 Posted January 13, 2015 @@LezzieLez I AM!!! I just found out that I have one more day of REAL food, so that is cool, too! I thought the 3 day liquid diet was 3 days before the surgery day, but I guess I am supposed to count the day of actual surgery? Which is weird, but oh well. I am finishing up my packing tonight and getting on my plane in the AM! SO MANY READYS!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
