Im watching biggest loser and she said "you just said it yourself, I've never been good enough and that's your story. It's time to rewrite that story"!

Well ladies and gents that just hit this fat girl smack dab in the big ole face! I AM rewriting my story, and I AM good enough an I DO deserve this life I am giving myself on this journey!!!

This is one of MY personal battles! I have never been good enough or never mattered enough, or I've always put myself way below everyone else. It's my turn to do something for me and not for someone else and yes I do matter, and yes I am deserving of this, and oh yeah I WILL do this!!!

*Feeling really empowered and good about my journey tonite!*

Dee! Ty lady. My true ephinany came 12/27/13 when I had just been admitted into the hospital again for the 4th time in 3 mos with a copd exacerbation, asthma, and emphysema. When I to the er, the dr told me I was too young for all this. And that's when it hit me something was really wrong. I talked to my pcp and Taaaa Daaaa! I'm here.

I jus love when I am watching something or hear something said like this... That just makes me realize where I went so wrong in life! And this is one of those areas. I DO have to rewrite my story and make it what I want it to be. I can't allow my medical problems to define me anymore! I define me! I make me who I want me to be! I want to be a fit mom that her kids are proud of, it ashamed of! I wanna be a better example to my kids. I want off the bipap machine that scares my 3 yr old. I want to be responsible for being a success for once in my life! And guess what....

I CAN and WILL do this for my self and most of all for my children! I want them to know you chose your destiny... It doesn't chose you! You take life by the balls and make it work for you... Don't work for life!

      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.
