Less than 9 hours away... - ThinnerTimes

So, it is 12:05 and I am having surgery in the morning at 9AM. I am both nervous and excited. All day has been a weird day, one minute i am really excited and the next I am questioning my choice... I must agree the living will question really bought me down to reality... Do you having a living will, they asked

WOW.. this is real! This is going to happen...

It is funny because as much I hate that is has come down to surgical intervention to control and deal with my weight... I will miss my relationship with food. I have almost been in grieving today thinking that thats it... with you, things are completely different and this is a LIFELONG change. Not temporary or ever changing.. This is it.

Well, so it is down to the bottom hours and please wish me well. I have three little ones and I hope that everything is going to be okay and that this is the best choice for me.

Wow... only a day away. I remember that feeling. I hope you have a great experience!

Mrs Squishy and I still do not have a will prepared.

One of those things we know we should have done a long time ago.

Sending good vibes to both of you. About the living will, how many of you had one for surgery. My parents actually asked me if I would have one before my surgery.

best of luck to you, I understand where you are going, I am pre op and I just came back from my grandma's and she asked me to make a list of her home cooked meal, and I cried each time I ate them thinking I am no longer going to be able to eat this post op, but it is ok because I will be a healthier me, I think everyone goes through this, for so long food has been our friend and know we need to have a different relationship with it.

Teneasa and Deborah,
By the time you get this you'll be recovering and wondering how on Earth you even got yourselves onto the operating table? I am sure you are sore and a little "off colour", and are looking very much forward to coming home and are impatient to be "normal" - which you are!
Good luck with your recoveries - a new year is facing us and for you both it will watch you on your spectacular journeys! Welcome to the Losers Bench!
Best wishes!
