Surgery done!

I'm sitting in my hospital bd now feeling surprisngly well! The surgery went great and so fr recovery has bee really good. The biggest pain I have had is in my back and its just because it needs popped and I cant twist it due to the new incisions. My 9-year-old daughter was not too happy about going to bd at grandma and grandpa's tonight without me. Since it is a half day of school tomorrow maybe I will just let her come up here with my mom all day. ???? Hope everyone is doing well Nicole

6th day of liquid diet pre-op

Well it's the 6th day and still going strong. I tried some vegetable broth tonight for dinner. Yuck! That's the first thing that I have had on the diet that I did not care for at all. I need to set aside specific time every day to exercise but I just can't find enough time. Gotta rearrange some priorites because it will be a major priority after surgery.Luckily I have got ahead a few weeks in my online courses so that I can at least have peace of mind that it is taken care of while I'm out of commission. Now if I could just put the kids on auto pilot....

11 day of pre-op diet

I was going to try to blog everyday but obviously daily life caught up with me. I'm down 9 pounds now and still going strong. Went out to eat with the family last night and I was very impressed with myself. I ordered the tomato bisque soup (delicious) and I didn't touch the bread on the table or the desserts that were being passed around the table at the end of the meal. I woke up this morning with a visit from my special monthly friend which put a downer on the whole situation. Obviously I won't be losing much weight due to the bloating and I'm not feeling too motivated to do much of anything. I hoping and praying that it's a quick visit and the friend decides to leave town before the surgery because I don't need that extra stress. I gotta spend tomorrow getting things packed for the day of surgery and getting any and all lose ends tied up before the kids get back from their dad's tomorrow night. Hope everyone is doing well!

5th day of liquid diet for pre-op

I am on my 5th day of nothing but solids and a protein bar at bedtime. It hasnt been going too bad. I love the Isolate protein shakes from NutriShop and the applesauce and yogurt give me a little bit of texture. I just need to stay away from my kids at dinner time (yikes!). I have lost 5.5 lbs so far and can't wait to see how much I lose before my surgery date on April 19th. I'm counting down the days and I have finally reached the single digits. Only 9 days to go!!!

1 week down! 1 week to go!

I'm down 7 pounds in 7 days!! Mixed some peanut butter in with my cookies and cream shake today and that was pretty tasty. I've finally figured out a place to start walking with the kids but, go figure, it's gonna rain the rest of the week! Guess I should probably hop on the eliptical that's been gathering dust. I've been lucky enough to be on a prescription that supresses my hunger as a side effect so it has made this week a lot easier. I can watch cupcake shows and not even crave them haha! The bad thing is I don't even crave water so I have to force myself to drink. Hope everyone else is doing great! 1 MORE WEEK TO GO!!!!

Surgery Day

The day is finally here!!! I have my realize band put in this afternoon. Have to be at the hospital at 11:30 and I'm sure the surgery won't be until after 2. ( I hate afternoon surgeries!!!) A little nervous but I have my friends and family's support so that keeps me going. I'm soooo hungry. Wish I could at least have a glass of water. Well wish me luck and good luck to all of you!!
