Lots on my mind....

I'm still a bit sick, I went to the doctor today and she seems to think I'm getting over the flu yuck! On a more possitive note I made my appointment for this monday 4/11/11 to officallly start my Liquid pre-op diet. I'm excited to get the ball rolling on this but not very excited about all liquids and no food. I just have to stay possitive and seek support in all the right places. So in about two weeks from this monday i should be having my surgery. I can't believe it! Now when i think about it, It wasnt to long ago that I started this whole process. The whole time I thought to myself "this is not going to go through" "no way am i actually going to be able to have this done". I guess its true great things come to those who wait. I'm sooo excited to start this whole new chapter of my life and share it all with you. Please bare with me as I know i will be cranky and annoyed when hungry and impaitent sometimes. Once a month I go to a support group to get to know other lap band patients of my doctors and there stories. This helps so much, you have no idea. I would deffinitly recommend that if you are thinking about teh surgery or have even had it done already, to keep you on the right track find a support group near you. I also go to a chat site reguarly and have met some amazing people on there that have supported me and helped me through this process this far. I get great tips from them and have made life friends in just a short coule of months ive been chatting with them. Now i'm just trying to get better (from the flu) and recover so that there is nothing to stop me from this surgery. (Caution Touchy Subject) Ive had thoughts of what my last meal would be, I don't know if this is normal but i deffinitly have had thoughts on what i want to eat this weekend before I start my pre-op diet. I don't have so much urges i think now cause im still getting over being sick and im not that hungry, but i hope im better before the weekend ends so i can start fresh. My husband and son have been away for a couple of days and it will be a great time seeing them again but i should really get off here and rest while there not home cause if you have a family like mine, its hard to rest around them :-)
