Tomorrow's The Big Day

[Proud2BMe 1,016]

My flight leaves early tomorrow morning. My nerves are just now kicking in. I was never scared of dying during surgery before but now I'm getting paranoid and am writing lists of directions to friends and family just in case I don't make it. I know it's crazy, but still, I want to be prepared. I guess in a way a part of me is dying, the old me, the obese me. I still can't believe I've lost 22lbs on the pre-op diet. I technically have one more day to go and it wouldn't surprise me if I lost another pound by then. And I never slipped up and ate any sweets. I did slip up and have some steak, but that was during the phase where I could eat some lean meat and lettuce for dinner.

Thanks to all the good people here who have given great advice. I'm about to make the transition to the other side and become officially sleeved. Wish me luck!

Dear Proud,

My surgery is tomorrow also.. I too am freaking out but for a bit different reason.. I am not concerned with the procedure itself, but the aftermath.. I have been reading everything and anything I can get my hands on and the experience seems to range from smoothe sailing to your basic nightmare!...

Wishing you best of luck and "smoothe sailing"..

If you are up to posting in a few days, would love to see how you are doing!
