3 days and counting!! I am beyond excited!... Beyond Nervous too.
I have been on my pre-op diet for almost a week now. I have this urge to eat things I am not allowed to... God, I hope that I don't struggle with food cravings... I think I may crave THIN more than food, however, my weakness is carbs... which I cannot have and I worry that they may be a bit of a nightmare to avoid.
My husband is traveling to TJ with me for my surgery. I hear that the accommodations are less than desireable for him... I am a bit worried. I am the caregiver and I really don't want to worry about HIS comfort while I am trying to heal. I wish I had known of the sleeping situation prior to choosing TJ as my place for surgery.
I weighed myself this morning... I cannot wait to see those numbers going down. PLEASE GO DOWN!! This has gone on way too long!! Always a roller coaster with my weight. Looking forward to exiting this ride.
Almost 2 months out from surgery. I am on a steady losing streak. I am THRILLED! I am currently down a little more than 30 pounds! I look better but more importantly I FEEL better!!
It has been a little harder than I expected it to be, but I think I am finally figuring out my new stomache. I eat VERY LITTLE, but never feel hungry. That part if pretty cool. I have been pretty good about taking my vitamins, but I know I am not being great about getting in the protein I should be getting. I am working on that.
I went back to work a couple weeks ago... that was rough. My fatigue is getting better and my stamina is finally coming back, but whoa that was a rough road!! I slept a lot that first month.
None of my friends know about my surgery. Only my family... CLOSE family. Nobody seems suspicious yet... I am worried someday that will change. My weight has always been a roller coaster ride for me, so I am sure they are all just thinking it is another one of those "fad diets" I am currently trying. This time there will be no gaining it back... I am thrilled.
Can't wait to post the "I MADE IT TO MY GOAL WEIGHT" blog someday in my future!!
