Pre-op Day 13

Went to my pre-op appointment today. I lost 10 pounds on the Optifast. Well, 10  pounds from the last time I was weighed in that office back in July. It could have been more. I wasn't weighed right before I started the Optifast. My clothes sure are looser. 

I got some blood drawn and met with my doctor. So I'm all set. Not thrilled about having to be at the surgery center at 5:30am and it's a 45 minute drive.  

My mother-in-law arrives tomorrow night.  Today I've got 3 piano lessons, scouts, and the usual fixing dinner, kids' homework. Tomorrow I've got some picking up around the house, a bit of grocery shopping, filling my post-op pain medications, one tutoring appointment and getting ready for my mother-in-law to come here.  My doctor told me to rest up and not worry before Friday. Um. Impossible.
