Not A Silly Success Story



Recommended Posts

normally i write about alittle (silly) success story.

today, i got a really good success story.

last night i saw clay aiken in a christmas concert. LOVED IT

the parking deck is next to the concert hall and its 5 levels.

we parked on the 4th level.

i am writing to let you know that i walked

DOWN and after the show UP 4 flights of stairs.

did you read that? me who couldnt walk 10 feet without dying and gasping for air was going down and then up stairs...

yes it hurt that last little bit but i kept going.

5 months ago, there would not have been a chance in hell that i could have done that but you know what, i can now :)

wanted to share.

thanks for reading.

Great accomplishment CG!!! I know that feeling ohh so well. I can't believe how quickly I can move around and up and downstairs so quickly. Even my husband said to me the other day. "omg you flew up and down them basement stairs so fast" before I would have to take breaks inbetween me walking. Ugh!!

good job!!

How was the show btw??

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
