Sleep Study

Tonight is my sleep study at the hospital. Believe it or not, I'm actually looking forward to sleeping in a bed and having nothing to do, sort of like a vacation for me. I haven't slept in my bed in about 3 weeks. I have been doing a ton of renovations at the house and every room is filled to capacity. I am at the point now of emptying the rooms, throwing out and putting things where they belong. I look forward to having my bedroom back by the end of week. Anyway, the part I'm not looking forward to is NO TV (I always fall asleep to it) and being hooked up to machines and having sensors all over my head and face. Should be interesting.

I have to say something. I haven't told a lot of people about the surgery. Most I have told are incredibly supportive, but there are a handful that are trying to discourage me. If I could snap my fingers and the weight disappear, I would. I have tried EVERY other option....endless diets, exercise and hypnosis. Nothing has worked to this point. This is definitely a last resort for me. I completely understand all of the negatives and side effects, but if I had any other options, I would be taking them. What I find interesting is one person in particular that has criticized my weight isn't thrilled about the surgery. Honestly, it's none of her business and she should never have known about it to begin with, but how can she discourage it when her biggest issue with me has been my weight?!?! Makes no sense and I don't want to be around people that are negative. I am having the surgery and want to tell who I want, when I want, what I want. I am excited about it and I understand the obstacles awaiting me.

That is all I have to say about this now. Thanks for the vent session!!
