anewbeginning12414 7 Posted December 4, 2014 Won't be able to sleep tonight knowing in just ~9 hours, I'll be going through the first steps of a lifestyle change!! After a year's worth of work, it's an off feeling it's finally drawing to an end. If it wasn't already obvious to me that I'm stressing with nerves, among other things, I've been having dreams that my teeth are falling out!! I'm actually very disappointed in myself for the way I've handled my liquid diet for the past 3 weeks that I was recommended to do. Though, I'll say I've drank more than I've eaten, I've cheated more than I can I count on my hands (eggs, Soups with veggies in it, thanksgiving dinner...and leftovers,etc.). I do so knowing life won't be the same after. food has also been a huge comfort for me; college finals, job interview, managing home finances and other mommy/wife duties has proven to be almost too much! I've had numerous surgeries in the past near this weight laparoscopically in the past without fasting or dieting beforehand, so I'm praying hard tonight that I won't be hating myself tomorrow, but only the expected discomfort after the surgery! I've watched 2 family members have great success with their sleeves throughout this year and can't wait to share in the experience. Stopping all liquids at 10, then cleaning house and packing for overnight to keep myself busy!! Wish me luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anewbeginning12414 7 Posted December 4, 2014 Good luck side note I dreamed my teeth were falling out too I looked up what teeth falling out in dream meant, the result was anxiety, a significant change, a time of transition, and/or knowing you said something you didn't mean to. Interesting, huh?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

anewbeginning12414 7 Posted December 5, 2014 (edited) Surgery was perfect! Feeling sore only where the drain is. Get extremely nauseas after I chew ice or morphine. The awesome nurses are giving medicine to help ease the discomfort. Just walked the halls???? Tired now. Hard to believe this day has come and almost gone! The pain I am feeling now is only temporary! Because of the anesthetics, I'm a cry baby too! ???????? Edited December 5, 2014 by anewbeginning12414 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
