OMG, its getting so close!!!! I leave town headed to Chicago Sunday. That's the day after tomorrow... Im having so many mixed feelings.. Im happy but im sad and im scared and I hate to leave my kids for a week... uhhhhhhh Im just over here going crazy... Im thinking like what if this doctor doesn't give me what I want???? What if my results are weird looking or make me depressed... omg I just have so many feelings about this.. Never though I would... Because I have always wanted this and when thinking about it it always made me happy but now that it is just days away im going crazy with all these mixed emotions... Somebody help me please.. I just wish it will just hurry up and be done so I don't have to think this way or feel this way its truly driving me nuts... Okay so anyways, I did a little walmart shopping today bought some ointments, and antibacterial soap, mineral oil for my stomach, razors, and other nick nacks... Yesterday I went to Sams club and the first thing that caught my eyes when I walked in was these jogging suits. So I bought a couple.. I also bought from there some really good body cream for dry skin in case my tummy gets dry after... Im really excited!!! Of course I keep getting negative mouth activity from family... but I don't care what they say or think... They don't like the ideal of me going out of town to get surgery... But im like helloooooo it's nothing wrong with it... its not like im going by myself... There so irritating.... So anyways I will be leaving sunday night... Arriving in Chicago Monday morning around 6am.. I will check in the hotel take a bath and get some rest.. Then maybe hit up a mall for Victoria Secrets.. (I LOVE PANTIE SHOPPING) I have 4 full big drawers of painties at home and probably could use about 2 more.... Crazy Right! Maybe Lunch and some site seeing, then back to the hotel... Tuesday is my Pre-op appointment... yay!!!!!! after that maybe lunch again then back to the hotel... Wednesday is another free day with nothing to do... Maybe just chill in the room and order in some pizza.. maybe get in the Jacuzzi!!!! That sounds so relaxing... Then Guess what!!!!! Thursday morning is the big day!!!!! YAY!!!!!!! Then it will all be over with... I will go back to my room and sleep the day away and maybe go to eat or something... depending on how I feel! :( Then Friday I go to my Post - op appointment... Hope all is well! Then I can leave and go back home to my wonderful husband and kids!!!! It's so close but so far away! I pray time goes fast before I lose every piece of my mind. I hope I love my results I really do.. 12,000 is a lot of money to waste on something not worth it... But I am going to remain positive and everything should be great! Pray for me RS SISTERS! So I will be posting more pre surgery pictures up until my big day! I will also share pics of the city I will be in and the hotel! How does that Sound? Ok Tah Tah Love yall!!! Muwah!!!

My kids will stay at my moms house for the week that i will b out of town. So i have to pack their luggage and go grocery shopping for them. Im soooooo excited yall! So today i will get started on some cleaning washing and packing. Then next week do somemore shopping. I cant wait! So heres some pics from today of my belly fat. Its ugly i know, but not for long!!!! Thank God!

Thank you and I will keep you all posted! I will post pics daily because I am also dieting. The last 4 days I will be just doing a water fast. Eating only fruits and veggies. maybe a protein shake too. idk yet because I wana eat healthy enough to have the surgery. 24 days away wow how r u feeling?

I'm feeling good. Nervous about my TT too, but it's normal. Just trying to keep myself busy. I decorated and put away all the holiday decs. Think I'll do a couple spring cleaning things next week to keep busy. I am working on losing another 5lbs at least, I thinks it's doable. Am eating protein, veggies, some fruit and drinking lots of water and green tea. Gonna do a 3 day veggie/fruit juice fast 7 days prior. Trying out a protein powder to make shakes with for the first week PO. They say you don't feel like eating much that first week PO and I want to keep the protein intake up cause it really helps you heal.

Yes surgery buddy! Are you just about all set with your supplies and what nots?
January 11, 2014
Yes! The Doctor told me I don't need to buy anything but of course I bought a few Items... What all did you buy? What do u think I need? Doctors only suggested that I buy/bring jogging suites... Which I am!

I have so many sleepless nights. My brain wont let me sleep. Lol i jus b laying down and my brain been wondering. Its so close but not close enough. I am scared but happy my dream is finally coming true! I still have some shopping to do and arrangements to make, i already ordered my recliner which im renting for 2 weeks or more because all my kids are always in my bed an they climb all over me so that recliner is much needed. Part of the reason im not sleep now is because of them. So anywho, it seems like the days go by slower when im anticipating something. Ok im gona try to go to sleep now. Here is a starter pic of me an my big ole belly. No laughing!
