Pity Party of 1

I am 4 days in to a pre-op diet. But I was here not too long ago too. Since first meeting the surgeon and nutritionist, I actually gained 10 lbs. I've never heard of anyone gaining that kind of weight during the pre-op diet. I was eating like crazy. I really couldn't get enough. (It's ever enough.) So I went from 295 to 305 in about 5 weeks. I'm trying to undo the damage.   It's late evening. I'm sitting in the recliner, icing my foot (tendinitis from attempting the treadmill 2 months ago!) and watching The Bachelorette. I've been hungry today and a bit demoralized. The show is on Mediera Island, which is where my grandmother and her family came from to the US. I love traveling, but last month, I didn't take my daughter overseas to visit her grandparents because I couldn't stand the thought of how uncomfortable I would be, from not being able to buckle my seat belt on the plane or in my in laws' car to being hungry and tired all the time at my in laws' house. There was going to be a big party with a lot of family there, but I just couldn't stand them seeing me. There would be pictures. I just couldn't face it all. But I get another shot in December. My surgery is at the end of September; so I'll be a couple of months post-op at that time. Things should be well under control by then. I hope so.
