One I didn't even realize I was doing.....



Recommended Posts

So I have a NSV that I noticed this morning and didn't realize I was even doing it until my daughter said something. :rolleyes: We were driving to school this morning and she looked over at me and said "Mom, Is it really safe to be driving with your foot in the seat like that?" Then I realized it. There it was.... I had slipped my foot out of my flip flop and put my foot on the edge of the seat and was driving like that. Safe maybe not, but let me tell you this, coming from someone who use to worry about the steering wheel touching my tummy when I was driving, to having my foot in the seat with me, it was a huge victory. :D I almost took a picture of it but I figured it wasn't a good idea.lol

I'm feeling better and better every day. Walking, running and just moving in general feels so good. I LOVE MY SLEEVE!!!

PS... If you are thinking about having the sleeve done, don't wait! Do you and your body a favor and DO IT!!!

That is funny because the other day my mom and I were going to the mall after we dropped the kids off at school. I have been putting my foot up on the side of the door for months now, but i guess she just never realized it. she said, my gosh your legs are so skinny. I was like what are you talking about. she looked over and said how can you keep it up like that, my knee was up near my boob, i just started laughing! it was so comfortable. I also sit like a pretzel at work now and everyone that walks past my office laughs at me!

YAY for flexibility!

It is such a great feeling. I used to be scared of getting down to sit on the floor with my niece. I now can get down, cross my legs, crawl with her and get up without help. Ahh to be free of you own body.

      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.
