5 Days Pre-Op
Yesterday was the very first time I had any sort of cold feet. I felt icky - heachache, backache, hangry (hungry and angry) and miserable in every sense of the word. For a split moment, I questioned my decision to have the surgery. The "what-ifs" fluttered my brain - What if it wasn't successful? What if I self sabotage? What if there is a major complication? What if they have to open me up? What if, what if, what if? Just as soon as those thoughts raced through my mind, most rationality returned and I determined my lack of solid food (11 days ago) and carbs caused these racing thoughts. Now 12 days into my all liquid diet, I am confident in my decision. I have a solid support system. I am nervous - sure, but I know this is the decision for me. I have worked so hard to make sure that I have set myself up for success. I have been so strong during this all liquid diet, I know I can conquer the entire journey. I have faith in me. That's all that matters.
