Yoda's Jedi Journals (aka Yoda's Yammerin's)

200 - 1 = 199

FINALLY.....ONEderland!!!!!!!

When I started this process I hoped but was never "sure" I'd get there...but here I am! Though I am happy about it.....oddly I am also a little sad (not sure why). Even though my goal seems that much more achievable now, it also (for some odd, unexplainable reason) seems much further away than ever before.

Mr Yoda says it is just my PMS rearing its ugly head....lets hope!!! :nervous

Anyways....I'm in Onederland now...though I would prefer more of a buffer zone away from the dreaded 200....but I'll work on that!

:(

Yup...it's comin' up soon! I will be on Vancouver Island from 18-26 Apr. I'm really looking forward to it BUT I'm also anxious because Mr Yoda isn't coming with me and I'm going to miss him very much!!! I know, it sounds sucky, but what can I say.....tis true!

After 77 lbs, I would like to think that my folks will notice a difference but part of me is afraid that they won't!! They say they do in pics that I've sent....but maybe they are just being nice. Once again, though, they are in a no win situation. Part of me wants them to comment positively on it and the other part wants them just to shut up about it and not comment!!! Ya know? (I don't need/want to be reminded of how bad it had gotten!).

We are going to TO on 5 Apr to see the musical based on QUEEN'S "We Will Rock You". We got tickets before they even went on sale and so we have front row in the first balcony, center seats.....they will be amazing! Can't wait. Queen rules! (this is why Mr Yoda's TLBC consult is booked for 5 Apr; since we will be there anyways). We are spending the night downtown at the Delta Chelsea....so THAT will be fun too!! (winka winka!). I have a couple of hundred dollars worth of ROOTS certifcates burnin' a hole in my wallet so I'm excited to go to the Roots store by the Eatons Centre (it is waaaaay bigger than the one in the mall where I live). I really like their bags....Mr Yoda thinks I have enough, but when it comes to Roots Bags, no amount is ever enough.....right gals?!!

I also LOOOOOVE the LONESTAR restaurant and so we'll for sure hit that as well!! mmmm mmmm !

Loriely: enjoy your trip to Edmonton....it gives you something to look forward to! I believe I change flights in Edmonton on the way there (Calgary on the way back).

      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.
