    Have been planning and talking about this surgery for almost 4 months!! And it's almost here!! I am super excited, but super duper nervous!!

Here is my list, tell me if I "need" anything else....

    3 summer dresses (to be comfortable and not having anything uncomfortable on)
    my "undergarments" ...
