I am having trouble sleeping now since surgery though so I'm definitely talking to Dr. Ivan tommrow about it. I feel like I have restless leg syndrome but with my whole body. I hope he can help me out.

Aww jeeze. I can't really sleep because of my c pap some times.

[MollyF22 62]

Is it loud? I'm sorry you can't sleep either. Idk what's going on and why my body just feels so restless. I walk alot n I drink Water. I just feel restless when I take a medicine with a sedation in it. Like I take ibs medicine and it used to help me sleep at night but does the opposite. Nyquil n zofran are the same way. I hope to get some answers later.

Its not loud at all, unless my mask leaks. Just the mask, its so cumbersome on my face and it irritates my skin and is causing red bumps. I know, I know, I'm being a whiny brat when this nice medical device that my insurance paid for is supposed to help me breathe. You need to breathe to live, ya know.

@@MollyF22 how'd your appointment go?

[MollyF22 62]

Oh my goodness. There's no way to sleep with that thing on. I'm sorry! That's no fun at all. Idk how they expect people to sleep with those. I hope the surgery helps with not having that anymore eventually.

Bloomer, it went great. Their scale said I'm 234. But Ivan is happy about my progress. It was really embrassing because my appointment was at 6pm tonight so I was the last patient, well I was a few mins late due to my manager keeping me until 5 and traffic but I walked into the office with everyone standing there waiting on me. Ivan, the girl who takes us back, 2 receptionists, and dee. They joked and said they were having a waiting party for me. I didn't expect them all to be there.

How is everyone doing?

[Tssiemer1 549]

Oh you know. Hanging in there. Trying to get some sleep. Lol. You?

Day three of liquid pre op diet. :/

[Bloomer723 75]

@@bcostasbiggs ~ I'm right behind you, I start pre-op diet on Friday. I have a turkey that has been in my freezer since Christmas that I pulled out to thaw for my Lastgiving Meal on Thursday. I'm going to make a turkey with the fixins' for the family, that way we will have some leftovers for them while I'm starving..lol

[Tssiemer1 549]

Ugh. I ate like half a medium pizza and some cheesy bread tonight. With alcohol. I feel awful.

[MollyF22 62]

Tssiemer, don't feel guilty at all. Your allowed to have fun before surgery and you definitely should enjoy these moments because you won't be able to enjoy those moments again pretty much. Carbs are so filling right now. I eat them and then feel so sick. I wish they sat okay. Maybe they will with you though.

[MollyF22 62]

I am 2 months out today! Starting weight was 266 and today I am 229. This has been my last 4 weeks in each picture. Red shirt is recent obviously lol.

I agree-- don't feel guilty. I wish I had had a little more fun before the pre op diet.

Also, you look amazing!!
