I had gastric bypass 9 years ago and have been thinking about a tummy tuck for the last 5 years. I kept putting it off until I lost all the weight I planned to lose. Well that hasn't happened I am still 20 pounds from goal. After much research my insurance would only cover a pananectomy and since I need a full tummy tuck and then some we decided to pay for the procedure on our own.
I had my consultation in early July and was scheduled immediately for July 31st. I am now only 4 short days away and am extremely nervous.

I am in the process of nesting. Went grocery shopping today and also picked up a few pairs of pjs. Today is my son's birthday so I will eat a final dinner with him before I begin my new life on the flat side. I am extremely nervous but I am trying my best not to dwell on it. I don't feel any excitement at all and I think that bothers my husband. This surgery is costing us quite a bit and there are other things we could do with the money. He has never said that and I hope he doesn't feel that but my emotions are everywhere today.

So the surgery center called me yesterday morning to let me know my surgery had been scheduled for 7:15 am
No food or drinks after 7:00 pm. Darn that put a big damper on my son's birthday dinner at the ball park. I wasn't too hungry before 7 but I swear come 7:01 I was starving. Had a very busy day so I didn't have time to stress but now here I am instead of sleeping looking at profiles and updating mine. Praying or a safe and quick recovery for all those having surgery today (everyday)
