That's so normal. You'll be fine. Do something to take your mind off of surgery. Get that anti nausea meds and you'll do great. I think I was so geeked and ready, that I didn't have time to be nervous. I remember they carted me off to the surgery room, had me move over to another table and then put a mask on my face and told me to take 3 deep breaths and I only remember the 1st. Next thing I knew they were waking me up after surgery. I really didn't feel pain until later that evening and even then I was so on top of the pain meds that it wasn't that bad. Good luck.

I am better today. It took me all these days though to just feel ok. It was a hard recovery. I tried to go out yesterday but had motion sickness. Today I was able to go to Shaws which was a big deal..I was wiped out when I got back.

I have lost 17lbs since the 20th of December so I am happy about that. This week has helped b/c I've lost almost a pound every day. Most likely due to not eating much. I'm trying.

I just made some egg custard to eat later. I'm so happy to be able to eat a little something. I sometimes feel sick just b/c of not being able to eat.

How are you feeling?
