TWO WEEKS DOWN AND ONE 2 GO
Well I'm at the end of my second week of my three week and two day pre-op diet. The Mon-Fri part of the week went very well, but the weekend was a different story. I didn't like totally blow it but I had to cook all weekend and did some canning stuff from my garden and the tasting (just little tastes to make sure it was right) was enough to make me not feels so well. I also got so busy I forgot to take my pee pill. (that is what I call that water pill I take for edema) - So I feel a bit puffy, but not too bad.
I'm down a total of 12 lbs as of this morning but will know more in a couple days once all the fluid is down again. I feel so much better though and just that little bit of weight has made a huge difference on my ability to walk a bit more. For every pound I lose that is 4 lbs of pressure off my back. That's 48 lbs of pressure off my back already. It feels much better. Can you imagine when I get a 100 or more lbs down. Wowzers - I'm going to love it. Still have trouble just standing, but I can at least go forward longer.
Only a week and two days away. Its so close. Feeling the nervousness creeping up. I don't even thinks its the surgery. Its such not much time to get a few things taken care of around the house and yard before. (hence the canning). I don't think I will be in the mood after. *wink*
