Got a date paper work submitted....



Recommended Posts

Well ladies this is it my paper work went in Monday!!! :thumbup:

I have started my journey since November 15th 2007 and it is now October 22, 2008. The Doctors Medical Assistant gave me a date of November 14th :wub::wub:can you believe it’s almost year to date from when I started. But I just wanted everyone to keep there fingers and toes crossed because she said I should here back from her on Monday.:thumbs_up: I gone on so many web sites and read so much that I’m getting nervous if this really happens. :smile2: I really want to post a success story with all my goals that I have accomplished. And my first mini goal is to run on the treadmill for at least 15 minutes straight with someone calling 911,:blushing::sad_smile: (LMAO) because BABY I’m a mess just after 1 minute of running.:crying::scared2: And of course my super goal is the weight, but everything will come in its time. And its funny because when the assistant called me she was like you have stayed the same weight for one year. She said she has never had anyone do that, so in the back of my mind I was like great I should have made some changes in my weight.:sad:

.......Have one little conceited and selfish goal..:wub::rolleyes2: 2 years ago I brought a pair of seven jeans from lane Bryant now ladies if you shop in lane Bryant you know how pricy they are. Well I brought these jeans in a size 18:scared2: for $25.00 with all my coupons original price was $90.00 and when I wore them they were skin skin skin tight :ohmy:I only wore them once but I was workin it that night I was told.:thumbup: So my conceited goal is to get back into them and work it out again… LOL:blush::laugh::w00t:

Will keep you all posted....

Later Dawn

      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.
