Journey thru Lap Band Surgery

Entries in this blog

 

Lap Band Journey

Today is Saturday, July 30th.2006   My surgury has been scheduled for August 14th. It's coming quickly. I am going out of town Aug 7-12, and rush home for two weddings on Saturday, then surgery on Monday. I am a bit nervous. I seem to be eating anything I can. I meet with the Nutritionist on Monday, and I have all I need to do a cleanse, but I will have to make adjustments in Las Vegas. I am trying to read all I can and have everything as ready as possible. I feel like a new world will be opening up for me.

Last day eating crazy

Today is the last day of July. Now beginning tomorrow, the countdown begins. Today I met with the nutritionist Paula, I liked her. She let me taste several protein drinks. I was shocked at how good the Carb Options tastes. But as I have been reviewing this site, many say their nutritionists recommend Carnation Instant Breakfast, I think I will try it. Also, dry milk. I appreciate these options. I did pick up some ice packs today and a few gas x pills. I think I need more. I would like to really be successful on this protein diet prior to surgery. Tomorrow I must take the prescriptions to Dr. Thompson at Kaiser to have them rewritten. I will get them filled before weeks end. I am looking forward to my stomach going down. Right now it sticks out farther than my boobs. I hate it. Anyway, I must prepare further. Be back tomorrow.

I didn't make it

Well, I didn't get up early enough to make a decent breakfast, then I made it to lunch and wanted to order some soup from a chinese place, and ended up ordering mongolian beef. I didn't eat more than 4 bites of the rice though only good thing. I did eat egg roll. Not good. Anyway, will try to flush it down. Will work on tomorrow. 13 days till surgery.

It's getting close

Well, I just got back from 5 days in Las Vegas. How in the world did I think I could stick to my high protien diet with creme brulee looking me in the face. Well, my surgery is on monday. Yes, I am nervous since I didn't do my part to prepare. Anyway, I will do a cleanse for the next couple of days, maybe that will help. ( I hope) I worry about the pain, but am trying to psyche myself up. Will check in again tomorrow 2 days till surgery. Wow:faint:

Detoxing

Well, its Saturday,two days before my banding. I started the day taking bentonite, volcanic ash to detox my body. two doses was all I could handle, but I didn;t eat anything else today. I went for groceries and bought some fresh lemons and syrup to make the lemonade cleanser. I will try that for the rest of the day. And again tomorrow. If I can have my body as cleansed as possible I will do much better after the surgery. I am so tired. I wish I was staying in the hospital so I could rest. But I must clean the house to prepare for next week. All for now
