It's a Go!

  • For some reason I've had this overwhelming fear that one of the pre-op tests would come back all wanky and I wouldn't be able to have surgery. Silly - probably, but nerve-wracking nonetheless. Anyway, yesterday I had my pre-op appointment with the surgeon and the PA and everything was great. I am in surprisingly great health for a woman of fluffy proportions. I am really and truly having lapband surgery next Tuesday morning - one short week away. I didn't have to have a psych evaluation either. Do they know who they are dealing with here?

    I also took a class called "Embracing Change" yesterday that was pretty good. I'm looking forward to taking more of this woman's classes. Don't you hate it though, when you get into a situation where there's one person who just always has to interrupt a speaker and draw attention to themselves? I would have gotten much more out of this class if one of the women in the group would have just SHUT UP!

    Ok, rambling now - just nervous!
    Wish me luck!

  • Best of luck to you Chickadee!
  • you're just as normal as the rest of us, chickadeedeedear.. for whatever it's worth!!!!

    and tell THAT WOMAN to stop sucking the air out of the room. if she needs that much one on one attention, she can pay for counseling!!!!

    hi there misty.. how's it going????

    one more week. one more week. one more week.
  • WOW!!! Only one more week! Hang in there and soon you will be on the "other side"
  • chickadee- Way to go, 1 week will fly by, I'm so excited for you. I stressed over my psych eval, but she was the nicest though. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers for a safe and speedy recovery

  • Oh Chickadee! You are now down to 3 more days and then the BIG DAY!!!! Kind of like winning the World Series!!!!!!!!

    I am so excited and happy for you. Your wait has been long and stressfull and it is almost over.

    Will it be a same day surgery out patient thing? What time? Who is taking you? and what time can we expect you to post so that our fingers aren't chewed to the nubs?(it will throw my pitching off)

  • Good Luck Chicadee!!!! We're all rooting for you!
  • Oh, Chickadee! You have waited and waited and waited for this day to come and it's almost HERE! Congrats, sweetie, I will be thinking thin/safe/healthy/happy thoughts for you on Tuesday and sending all my bestest vibes your way.

    (personally, I think it was all the chocolate you consumed over the years owning that shop is the reason why you are in such good health - I'm just sayin'.....)
