Been a While

Nov 30, 2010

Well It's been a while since I've been on here. Since I started my program for my surgery my husband got orders for Pensacola. That STOPPED my surgery plans short. I would have to go through the entire program all over again. Not to mention the fact that where I am now does not have the hospital I would have has in San Diego. I kind of view it as a blessing.

Since having gone through all the pre-op classes and diet classes I feel like I have a the knowledge I need to go this on my own without surgery. Right now I am on the post-op diet. (Day 5 to be exact) I don't know what it's like for those of you who have had the surgery so I can't say if it would have been easier to have surgery.  I am starving most of the time. I've been praying my way through it and so far my unofficial weight loss is 10lbs in the last 5 days. I feel sick and really loopy, but I'm pushing through it. I'd have to do the same thing if I had gone through my surgery so I'm going on as if I had.

It's taken all the energy I have just to get dressed in the morning. When I read through blogs on here, it's not unlike what most of you feel like post-op. Having said that, I feel like some of my experiences will be quite a bit the same as some of yours. I'm looking forward to my journey and getting through this first part. It's rough!!!
