30 Yr Old Mother of Two with 100 Lb Fat Loss...

Today will be my last normal Friday for a while... My husband says I sound silly when I talk like that. I told him "Countdown to the gallows!"... lol... but in all seriousness, I realize my days (and nights) will be completely different while I'm healing. It's the little things you take for granted, being able to jump up in the middle of the night and go pee by yourself, reaching up and grabbing the cereal off the top shelf, even driving yourself somewhere- all things I won't be able to do for at least a week post-op... I'm hoping I don't get a stubborn bug in me and overdo it, though. The pain will definitely be a blessing in reminding me to slow down.
Yesterday, my anxiety went away for a bit, or so I thought. I felt completely detached, blank and forgetful, even dizzy at times. I was also shaky all day long- but my brain was calm... maybe that's what I need to do. Not think... I'm known to think too much on things... besides, it's coming closer every minute - no reason to fret than, right?! Just accept and release.
Today will be a GREAT last Friday... TGIF

220 lbs- circa 2008

It's now exactly 1 week til my surgery... I'll be going in at 730 and having a full tummy tuck (horizontal and full vertical incision), a breast lift/ reduction (keyhole incision) and flank lipo... I've had two children (10 yo & 12 yo) and have lost a hundred pounds. I've gone from a size 20 pants wearing a 36M bra to a size 0/2 pants wearing a 32DDD bra- all from healthy diet and exercise... I'm ready to look the size I've worked so hard for, without all the extra skin holding me back due to insecurity. But I'm so nervous for the surgery. I'll only be taking 5 days off work (including surgery day)- apprehensive to return to work, especially with my drains...
