I have to be at the hospital at 5:30 am. The hospital is almost an hour away so we will be leaving here at 4:30...is it legal to be up that early??? I don't have to spend the night in the hospital, so I really don't have anything to pack.
I know I said I wasn't going to have that "last" meal...but my mother made me. I think in her mind I will never be able to eat again. Here is how our phone convo went down:
Mama: I am taking you out to eat tonight.
Me: Mama, I really don't need to go out to eat. I have done so well on the pre op diet I don't want to mess it up.
Mama: Well you gotta eat, and since they are gonna starve you to death after today I think you need to eat.
Me: Mama, I am not gonna starve to death. Have you seen my ass lately??? I got enough in reserve to last me for a long time. I really think I just need to stick to the pre op diet.
Mama: OK, I will pick you up 6:30...see ya then, love you, Bye.
I told you, us southerners think they have to show love with food...even if the person is about to have weight loss surgery. I knew this was my mother's way of just showing she loved me...so I went and ate a salad. I brought the entree home for the Rockstar to eat...better it go on his ass than mine.
When I got home The Rockstar and I went to the grocery store to get the stuff I would need for next week. I didn't take a list with me, so I am sure I probably forgot something...

I am so excited for you! From the looks of your pic you look pretty set! I would get some GasX chewables too. Also some low cal Gatorade/Powerade. You are gonna be soooo thirsty after surgery.
Yay!!! Tomorrow is the day! Looks like you're stocked up. You can always send out the rockstar to get you something if you forget. Let us know how you're doing!
Good luck darling! Will be thinking of you and hope all goes well! x
Good luck! You will do great!
Yay!!! So exciting. Looks like you are all set to go, but I second the chewable gasX. those were my friend afterwards!
I was nervous and excited at the same time...and everything went great. I'm sure it will go great for you as well. Good luck!
So excited for you! Your groceries look good but I doubled on the popsicles...i love them! Also, try some hot tea, they soothed my sore tummy.
