 |  Down to HOURS - EEK
It seems like it took forever to go through the process of approval, but once I rec'd a date it seems like the time has flown! My surgery is this Saturday, 2/13. My husband has now started counting hours instead of days! Yikes! I have read EVERYTHING possible over the last few years and have been super excited - but now I think I'm mostly in shock and a little tiny bit scared/nervous.

How are you feeling Lexie? Are you up and at em? I am worried about my energy level because I have a 6 year old and an 8 year old and I don't do very well at sitting still. I plan on walking a lot, of course, but hope to be able to do other things right after too. I am hoping if all goes well I can be back at work during the 2nd week. My job is low key and I can rest as much as I need to.
Are you able to do things like go to the store or clean up around the house at a week out Lexie?

You'll be on the loser's bench before you know it. This is an incredible journey with bumps and celebrations along the way.
Everyone heals/recovers differently. I was shopping on the way home from the hospital, walking around the block same day, and visiting friends & family next day.

I am doing great and I feel just like I did before surgery now. I am up and about without a problem and doing thing just fine. Please keep in mind that we are all different. The best thing is being able the sleep on my side and roll over when I want without even thinking about it!

Hi Chantelc,
I'm right behind you with the surgery date of 02/15/10. I am both excited and nervous. I do think that I'm making the right decision. I know I will feel much better and look much better. Still it's a little scarey. I get excited after reading blogs and chats from fellow wls friends. My prayers are with you and you will do great!!
