Just thinking!!!

I looked at a lot of before and after pics an they are great. I see so many different weights that people are down to and what they started out at that I am amazed. In my mind I think if I was at the starting weight of some I would be happy but hey I will be there soon.
My nerves are starting to get the best of me and my mind is working overtime here. I have gone through so many different emotions in the last two days that I am confusing myself. I can be my worst enemy sometimes. I have my surgery on June 24, 2008 only three days away and I am like whoa and this cleaning thing you would think I was having a baby and I was nesting. Did anyone else do that whole cleaning thing before your surgery? Please let me know that I am normal here because I am starting to wig myself out. Well good luck to all the upcoming surgeries!!!!

The nesting you talk about is normal. You're just putting things in order and making it smoother for your recovery. Don't forget to pamper yourself a bit too. The next few weeks are going to be a challenge. Schedule a manicure or a massage for the weekend after surgery. Just a little something to recharge your batteries. Purchase your protein drinks, broth and liquid Tylenol. Get the heating pad out. Make any arrangements needed so your family is taken care of.
What you are feeling is normal. If you have read a few blogs about the early days of someones banding you well likely see the uncertainty there. We have been there and gotten through. So will you!!
PS stay away from the threads about complications. It will just worry you unnecessarily. That was some of the best advice I got and I try to pass it along to the newbies as well.
Good luck and keep us posted.
