T-minus 2 days and counting...

I got the phone call and my surgery check-in time is 9:45am! ACES!

I've had to leave school early a couple times for the Dr's appts and I'm afraid the teachers are starting to get a bit curious. I'm going in early on Wed. to take a quiz and then leave at 9 for surgery. I'm hoping that I won't be in too much pain afterwards, because I really need to be back at school the next day for clinic. I've got a patient coming in for a cleaning and I'm gonna need a reason for not being at school.... it's only a half day and I'm gonna be sitting the whole time I just need to be alert and not all groggy. Obviously if I can't drive then I'll have to call in sick, but again I'll need a good reason without hinting to what I've done...hmmm....

I asked Steve to take a few "Before" photos, but he's tall so the angle makes me look smaller, but believe me, I'm not. I would post some stats but it's a bit too embarrassing, but once I start losing and get away from these high numbers I'll definitely post!

Wow! I can't believe these photos! It's amazing how fast this creeps up on you. I guess I still see myself as I did for my wedding last summer, 45lbs. ago.

Well, there you have it...yowza! I can clearly see where I put on weight, geez! THAT'S what I don't see everyday, this will be good motivation.
Well, not sure if I will write again so please say your prayers for a safe surgery and that Jesus will please guide the hands of my awesome surgeon.
See you on the other side!
