The nerves are normal but you can do this and will be fine. 

The best advice I can give you is to not fight the healing process after the surgery.  Don't be in a hurry to get back to your normal schedule.  This is a long healing period and the only thing you need to focus on is rest for the first couple of weeks. 

You only get one chance to heal properly so do it right the first few weeks and everything will turn out beautiful.  So many women want to run back to the gym, pick up with their crazy life so fast.

Surround yourself with positive people, make sure to have a good care taker for the first week and eat really healthy.  Good lean protein is what you need for proper healing.  And drink plenty of fluids.  And don't forget the Milk of Magnesia.  You don't want to get all backed up. 

Feel free to email me or post to me anytime with questions. 

I will be watching for your pictures:)

Only a few more days!  Make sure to take before and after pictures so that you can watch the changes take place.  It's so much fun to compare them side by side. 

We will be thinking about you on the 1st and anxiously waiting for updates.
