It’s been 7 hours since surgery and I’m feeling ok. A little sore but nothing too bad. The dressings look a little bloody, not like my gallbladder ones which had no blood.

I feel so happy. Up until 2 minutes before I wanted to chicken out, I wasn’t sure I was ready, but now I feel on top of the world. I have a new best friend and this is the start of our journey! I feel so positive about life, almost like I have been given a second chance.

I want to take a second to thank my wonderful friend Nicole. She arranged for me to have this surgery for free. She was in the right place at the right time and I was the first person she thought of. She has been my inspiration and motivation she lost over 50kg with a band and looks amazing. She really held my hand and supported me through this whole process and for all of that I will forever be thankful.

Time to go back to sleep. Bandit and I are pretty tired.

Goodnight dear friends in blog world.
