Wow this has been a journey thus far. I have never posted to this site, I've just been reading the post of others. Now that I finally have an approval and my surgery date of 3/5/14 I am super excited! I am nervous and really want this to work. My first step is to get through all of this pre-op stuff. I don't plan to weigh myself unless I'm at the doctor. I've read on here how people have become addicted to the scale. I've been there before and I don't want to set myself up for disappoints when I am making progress. I'm not going to lie I am hoping I am a quick loser Now that the date is very real and coming very quickly I do wish I could tell more people about the surgery. I have only told a select few and no family members. I don't want anyone saying I am taking the easy way out since I have loss weight before. this is NOT an easy way out and it is hard work. I need a tool that will help me to maintain. Okay I am rambling...one last thought. When my surgery was denied the first time about a week ago I realized I am still very much an emotional eater. I am hoping the sleeve will help eliminate the physical desire to eat when I am emotional or stressed. Well, I'm off to get everything in order so I can relax while I'm recovering after surgery. I just want to focus on understanding my new eating to live lifestyle.
Any suggestions on what I should pack for the hospital?
