Pre-op diet and other things
on May 24, 2012 4:06 pm
Its day three of my pre-op diet and things are going pretty good day one was really hard and that night I ended up really sick for about an hour not sure why but it passed thank goodness. The numbers moving on the scale are helping me stay focused on the diet. Its day three and I have went from 285-277.... I was like holy shit. The clinic in my town that leaves much to be desired is finally putting in my IUD tomorrow. I really did not want to worry about being intimate with my boyfriend all the time and this will help. It took me about 2 months for them to actually talk to my gyno about me and give me a call back. I am training new girls at work and its like thing one and thing two dress the same, hair the same, go to the bathroom together. I am like really we are in a max security prison. Anyways I hope the next few weeks fly by!!!!!

Homestretch!!!
on May 18, 2012 6:15 am
Got home from my pre-op visit, pre-op class and my pre-admit stuff. Surgery is still on schedule I have to drive in a day before planned for a hida scan for my gallbladder to see if they will take it out with the surgery. Getting excited and nervous. Training people we finally got hire before I am out for a few weeks. The only bummer is my Hida-scan is on a monday and my surgery is on wednesday and my Boyfriend has a job interview on tuesday so I am trying to find someone willing to drive me 5 hours to Reno for the Hida scan so my boyfriend can drive into reno the next day after his interview. Hopefully he gets the job we really need it right now!!!!!

8 days to loose some weight
on May 7, 2012 5:45 am
Apparently my surgeons office uses the the weight the day of your pre-surgery class not the weight you are the day of surgery to see if you have lost your pre-surgery weight loss goal. I have been doing the 1st of week my Dr's 4 week pre-op diet for a couple weeks(yeah i started it early) and NOTHING!!!! So scared they are going to make me reschedule. Also might add my pre-op and this class are three weeks before surgery so I am sure by the time surgery rolls around I will be at this goal weight. Its just because of the date of the classes, work and distance away from my surgeon I had to schedule it that far out. I am praying that I can at least weigh 5 lbs lighter than 289 with clothes on when I weigh in. I might need to do some begging and pleading. Wish me luck.  Also why when you absolutely need to be on a diet do things on tv and all the restaurants and fast food places in town are calling my name.... ARRRGHHH

For the past 3 paydays I have worked tons of overtime. My job is very emotionally draining I am sure everyone could imagine a maximum security job could be. I almost for a minute there I thought maybe ill wait for work to get less crazy so I can actually focus on what i need to focus on before surgery I have been very naughty they gave me a 16 lb weight loss goal before surgery and what have a done started the first part of my pre surgery diet I do awesome at work but when I am home I have cheated and it doesnt help living 2 minutes away from the fast food places in town. Anyways my boss FINALLY sat down and talked to me about the time I was taking off which lifted a weight off my shoulder and even gave me the time off in a way it save me like 20 hours of leave. WOOT and gave me the 3.5 weeks I wanted off not the 2.5 weeks i originally asked for. Althought my life has been crazy I am thankful that it has gone by fast and with work, dr appointments, pre-op appointments, traveling back and forth to reno for all this, and my 27th birthday I am almost positive 6/6/2012 will come so fast. Im a little more scared than I am was in the beggining hoping all my pre testing ekg and lab work comes back okay and a little worried about how hard getting used to my stomach will be. But its worth it in the end all this stress, the pain..... I am excited.

Signs from the WLS gods
on April 23, 2012 10:30 pm
Although I am VERY happy I was approved so soon I did not have any money saved up for the surgery beforehand has steadily become a problem because right now I live paycheck to paycheck anyway and living 5 hours away from my surgeon means not only the 1500 copay and $300 pre surgery class fee but it means traveling expenses. To add to my stress work is stressful and I have had my schedule switched because of staffing and working tons of overtime. You are probably saying Overtime why havnt you been able to save. Seems like something always happens that I cant save my boyfriend needs gas for work. We need grocieries, you know just little things. But right now instead of focusing on loosing weight and focusing on getting ready for my surgery date I am worrried about finances and work related stuff. Although I am trying really hard not to put off my surgery for a couple months. Its just like I need to take a breath and reschedule it.
