tomorrow

Surgery is tomorrow at 8:45.  I have to be there at 6:15.

I spent the day dealing with the surgeon's office over my lost blood work.  They said it was canceled and not done.  The hospital and me were saying it was done.  We were there so we should know!  Turns out the lady at the surgeon center was looking at the wrong file.  NIIICE!!  I really hope I don't wake up from surgery with a bypass instead of a sleeve.  No apology or anything for all my stress and anxiety all weekend.  It was very frustrating, but at least it was distracting.  Now that everything is sorted out, I feel a sort of calm.

I took my citrus of magnesia, but nothing really happened.  Lots of stomach gurgling and some stomach cramps, but that's about it.  I was so proud of myself for taking that entire bottle.  I was so scared to swallow anything strange after last week's barium/crystal trauma, but I did it!

I'm just so ready to wake up tomorrow (pain and nausea free hopefully) and start working on the healing process and losing weight.  In a week I will be able to get back in the pool.  I'm just holding on to that.  I can't wait for all this anxiety to be over.  I can't wait to be able to say the hard part is over and I'm doing it.  I'm losing weight.
