Today I went to my pre-op visit with the anesthesiologist and all went well. There were challenges to get there, like not being able to find a sub, leaving later than expected, getting lost, but I made it. When I was there they weighed me and I am FINALLY down 10lbs! I was super excited to finally make it to the big 1-0. Even though losing 10lbs was amazing, I think the best part of my day was leaving school. When I was walking out, my students all tackled me with hugs. It felt so nice to see how many of them care about me, I am truly going to miss them while I am gone.
On a happier note, only 3 days to go! I kind of feel a little unprepared, even though I have been to 5 different classes, and a support group. For example, today I had to ask my Mom what pureed food is, I though I had to turn everything into soup. Glad I asked because that was not the case. I also need to think about what to take to the hospital with me. I guess tomorrow can be a hospital shopping day. I am still confused on how I am supposed to get 80g of protein a day if I can't eat a lot. I guess as the questions and problems arise, I will use my supports, like Dr. V's office, Obesityhelp.com, my support group, and of course my Mommy.
I suppose that is all for right now. Hopefully I will remember to post on Sunday night with my last minute thoughts. Thank you to everyone for all the love you have shown me!
