Consult day set

I officially have my consult date set-up for wednesday nov 4. I am kind of nervous... The person I spoke with said that I can be in for surgery by the end of the month as long as everything goes smoothly. I had a set back with the financing but should know by tomorrow that it is a go. I also have a battery of blood work that needs done and an ekg needs to be done tomorrow.... Fun stuff.... I meet with a pychologist on wednesday also... That makes me really nervous.. I believe I am ready for this... I have researched it and read the risks but the risks of surgery vs the risks of staying morbidly obese do not compare... I also understand the centre puts me a diet called meditrim.. Anyways so this is my first blog hope everything goes well for me with my financing and the consult.. Untill tomorrow...

Being prepared

Well I have learned a lesson today. I was unprepared and eat some foods I should not have. I did not go over board but old habits die hard and I am feeling guilty as heck about them. I had some chips and a piece of pizza. I did add them into my daily calories so I didnt really go to over board but I am wanting to be eating better more healthy. I learned I need to be prepared for situations. Carry an Isopure with me to hold me over. Buy some protein bars that I can eat and have in my car. I also am excited that the holidays are over and the kiddies will be going back to school in a few sleeps.   On another note I get to go for my first fill on January 13, 2010. I am more scared about this then the actual surgery was... I am happy to finally get a fill so I will possibly have some restriction.:   I will be starting my biggest loser wii program tomorrow. I am still getting over a yucky sinus cold but I need to start doing this. I also want all the junky food in my house gone.. :smile2: It is not helping me..   All in all though I am doing very well. I am completely happy I have my diva... She will help me succeed..   Loving Life....

Another day:::

Well another day has gone and I made it through a movie without eating popcorn or drinking pop... I just brought in my protein bar... Got to watch NEw Moon. and yes it was awesome... We go to a theatre that is 2.5 hrs away from home. So I am even prouder of myself because I did not eat any fast food. And yes there was temptation huge my kids and hubby eat at Burger King so I just pulled out another protein bar... I am feeling kind of sick today.. Sneezing and upset tummy.. I want to be healthy for this surgery.. Only eight days to go and I got my surgery time which is 10:30 on Dec 2, 2009...   Another good note I found some groceries for me after the surgery.. I got jello, pudding, soups, carnation breakfast I just need to find more flavors then just chocolate, apple sauce, and what else. I am getting excied to be in that stage because man I am tired of the same flavor shakes and protein bars.   I also found centrum chewable vitamins for 50 plus people I am only 35 so do not know what the difference is in the vitamins... LOL Probably better then not taking any vitamins though.. I also bought chewable calcium vitamin d tablets as well. The other thing I still want to buy is the omega oils need to find a way to buy that that is not totally disguisting..   Any ideas. Hope everyone is doing well...

2 months today since surgery

Hey well I am two months since surgery. Since November 1st. 2010 I have officially lost on my scale 30lbs. I am so happy... I am down to 268 lbs. Yeah for me. Once I hit 50 lbs lost I am going shopping at Lulu Lemon.. So fun... LOL   I have an awesome green tea that I am drink 3 times a day and I am continuing with my freshly juiced juice that I do myself so I can control what goes in there.... Todays was yummy. Cucumber, carrot, tomato, spinach, celery a few grapes strawberries and blueberries.. It was great... It also fills me so I have it right when I start to get hungry in the afternoon..   I have also started back on vitamins with a stress B because I have been having a hard time. I moved from my home town to be with my hubby where he works and I do not much like this place. I did it so my six kids and I can live with their dad as a family. I just feel really lonely here.. I miss having my girlfriends and doing things outside of family time. I need to get out more but find it soooo difficult. I go for a fill tomorrow and will be taking one of my husbands co-workers wives with me. I am sooo excited about this.. Again it is the little things with me..   Anyways got to run watching biggest losers... Happy yellow team is back...

2 fill

Yeah I get to go for a second fill next wednesday,... I am so happy... I am doing a happy dance and you can't even see me... For me it is the little things..   I feel like I am doing pretty good. My friend was here for a few days and brought me my favourite Japanese green tea. It is kind of a cool mix loose green tea leaves with with roasted rice and a few pieces of popcorn in it.. It is awesome.. So I have been drinking three cups of that a day.. Yummy...   I have bought more lean cuisine meals for those days that I just want food now instead of eating the crap dinner with the kids.. I add salad to it. because I still do not have restriction.   Weigh in on friday... Crazy nervous about that.. Keep up the good work all of us..
