Surgeon Testimonial

Donald Waldrep, M.D.
Dr. Waldrep has an excellent reputation. He posesses the nice combination of being professional and human at the same time. Dr. Waldrep was referred to me by a primary care doctor who had her surgery by Dr. Waldrep just a couple of years ago, so I figured he must be pretty good! Dr. Waldrep has put together a very comprehensive educational program, filled with hope, and honesty. The only complaint that I would have about Dr. Waldrep's program has to do with the fact that his office staff seem overwhelmed, and do not offer much personal assistance in the pre-op process. I assume they are VERY busy as Dr. Waldrep is so much in demand.rnI'll write more after my surgery.....rnOne-week post-op... I'm even more impressed with Dr. Waldrep. The nurses in the hospital and other patients have only the highest esteem for his surgical competence and professionalism. He, Mike (his assistant) and the nurses were concerned about my well-being, and don't mind repeating as many times as necessary the directions and precautions at each stage. My hat is off to them!

    Big Mac? You silly.. It is funny how we consoled ourselves with food. What an eye opener having WLS huh? I am finding new copeing skills, and finding myself wanting to go back to old habits, however I refuse to.

What To Take To Work Next Week
posted on 2/9/07 9:34 pm
Today is the Friday before I'm planning on going back to work, and I'm thinking about what I need to take to work to "be prepared...."

I'm still really tired, but have been doing a little bit of excercise each day to increase my stamina.  Today I worked up to a whole 12 minutes on the stationary bike at the gym!  The bike I've been using is a comfortable version on the traditional crotch-violating kinds.... you just sit down on it, and the pedals are sort-of out in front of you.  ANyhoo, it's still a little difficult to pedal without my still-large thighs bumping/pushing up against my belly, and bingo....rubbing right against my "bullet hole."  It's still pretty tender, and would rather be left alone, thank you very much.  

Okay, what can I take to work for lunch?
String cheese, baby-bell "PacMan" cheese
Soup in Hand
Protein drink for the drive to work
I need more fiber (things are getting stopped-up lately)
tuna salad with crackers
cottage cheese with dollop of marmalade
hummus and cracker bread
water mixed with juice

I'm going to have to take it slow, and I'm worried about that.  I'm sure there's plenty of work waiting for me when I return, and I have to resist the draw to jump right back in, in the frenetic mode that seems to be the norm.  That's going to be a challenge for me....balancing work with sanity.  

I'm looking forward to the SALSA support group meeting tomorrow in Roseville.  I'm sooooooooooooo glad that it exists.
