I should have listened to DJ Froggi Frog.....

And MacMadame!

Yes, I am getting sleeved. Except now that it's actually happening, I'm freaking out. I am quite surprised by this.

I'm freaking out.

Somehow I would like to see pics of Mac freaking out. They, in no way, could match the mental pics I have of that.

Seriously, why the freak out? Everything will play out fabulously. You know this.

I think that is probably pretty normal. I almost backed out three days before surgery. I came very close to saying, "Nahhh... I don't think so!" ;o) It'll be fine, you'll see.

I'm starting to freak out about my liver maybe being too fatty at surgery. Since I am seeing a lot of posts about it. I mean shit I've lost 23 lbs but I started at a very high weight and still have 2 1/2 months of this insurance diet...then should have preop. Hopefully it shrinks enough if it is fatty.

Well I feel better today.

I think it's just the permanency of it. I could fool myself that the band wasn't permanent and if it turned out to be a mistake, I could have it taken out. But when they cut my stomach out, it's gone. What if I don't like how my life is afterwards? Can't get it back!

Of course, I'm already eating like I've had the surgery and it's fine. I don't feel strange at all. There isn't anything else that would be wildly different, as far as I can tell. I exercise now (when my health is up to it) and enjoy it and the sleeve doesn't require other lifestyle changes like some of the other surgeries do. I have to take Vitamins, but they are exactly the same ones I am taking now. My poop should be about what it is now. Etc.

Really, the eating is the only part that worries me. I don't want to throw up every time I eat or not be able to eat lots of different kinds of food. I'm doing this to be normal, not to trade one kind of abnormal eating for another.

Be sure and loudly proclaim "Oh, I accidentally dropped my stapler", then bend over slowly and pick it up. That's my best move....it drives the ladies wild at work*

*By ladies, I mean my imaginary friends.....hey, screw you for judging me!!

Plain - you are so wrong!!! Oh but I definitely must admit I laughed pretty dog gone hard!

So for today's topic: Did anyone watch "Big Medicine" last night? There were 2 episodes of cutting off the excess skin. One woman - it was SO major. Whew

What station / time is it on? It sounds interesting, but I haven't yet caught an episode.

Discovery Health - there were 3 episodes on last night back to back. I put it in my Tivo so I don't have to remember! I love Tivo SO much.

I think Tivo is one of the greatest inventions ever. I never watch commercials anymore.

      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?

      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.
