The final countdown!

My surgery is in less than 48 hours!  I'm feeling calmer than I expected- definitely somewhat nervous but not so much that I am questioning my decision to do this thing.  I continue to feel a lot of relief that I will no longer be so overwhelmed by my struggle with obesity because I will have the powerful tool of the sleeve, the support of my surgeon and his team, the awesome community of fellow sleevers I am discovering online, especially on www.bariatricpal.com, and lots of friends, family and co-workers cheering me on.  Of course I am worried about pain and how difficult the first few weeks (months?) of recovery will be, but this still seems like the smartest choice and investment in myself I've ever made.
