emotional Fearing success

[Rivka7NV 40]

So I came up with an outrageous reading on my H.pylori so my surgery is delayed by 6 weeks (actually, it will be 3 weeks by next Thursday). I had to go through a round of antibiotics and then wait a month to retest. If I retest for a normal level then I will be scheduled out one month for surgery.

Right now I am practicing getting my Water in, chewing my food to pudding consistency, buying all my pre-op and post-op needs (coughing pillow, shower chair, etc.), getting caregivers together for me and my dog. Additionally, I am also getting rid of furniture to make way for exercise equipment and just plain old exercise. I am journaling, meditating, listening to audio CDs and tracking my food.

I look forward to my sleeve surgery but I keep wonder if there is more that I can do.

Anyone of you out there going through this too or have you gone through it in the past?

I think what you are doing is wonderful! Continue to lose weight and if you can try and exercise, even if it's from a chair.

Sounds like you're doing everything right. Keep going!

You are the right track and it is a minor setback but you will be alright. God speed.
