    Cardio evaluation

    It just swears us cardiac exams it's the what if but the can find things early before something happens and find its ok but it's just the waiting and thinking what if GLAD everything came out good
  6. Also from all pre op patients at my classes say the bread gums up and can't eat rice cause it expands in your stomach its better for protein and carbs to be veggies
  7. I asked my nurse and dr about this she told me the fallow the accreted weightloss guide lines my first week I'm only allowed protein and cream of chicken or cream of broccoli that have been strained when I start purée foods meat like1-2 oz tuna fish chicken 1 tbls sweet potatoes 1 tbls carrots peas 2 times per day and my protein 4 times per day and 1 sf Popsicle . They say you can eat sf Greek yogurt cream of wheat mashed potatoes but its like 1 tbls is a serving. Just talk to you dr just make sure you get at least 64 oz total fluids a day
  8. Haven't had my GB yet Feb 14 everyone different but you need to be up moving around and walking just no lifting I also take care of my grandchildren 13-12-7-5 a little older but still a handful they keep you busy they also live with me along with there mom & dad she's my daughter she works but she he and can help me.

    I have 11 days till my surgery I'm ready to do it so far on pre op diet I've lost 22 lbs have my appointment with surgeon and pre register at hospital and labs all tomorrow. It's funny at my class Saturday it was on Mindful Eating so the Psy brought in fruit for everyone to eat to make you think about all the streps that had to go through to get it there the growing picking shipping and pre to eat then she had someone bless the food and had everyone smell it the take a bit and think about it was very interesting how some people smelt the camp lope as a perfume fragrant and how everyone compared even the portions they got 7 post op 3 pre op patients that pre op said the felt they got to much as posed to post op and 1 post op thought she didn't get enough compared to other post op and how I felt watching everyone else eat cause I'm on only shakes if it bothered me seeing others eat she had told me this and asked if I wanted to leave because of this exercise I told her no she even went as far as bring in special dishes that belong to her Grandmother that she using on special occasions it was a very interesting exercise. Then this Thursday we have a cooking class that the chief prepares a meal I going to I had thought it was to be my lat meal but they moved my surgery from 21 to the 14 and if I didn't want to attend cause it was a dinner I told her this was something we had to get used to because of social and family function you are going to be put in these situations and I wasn't going to avoid them just cause I could not EAT its social not just food or eating for being with friends
