When will it end...
posted on 4/3/11 10:02 am

Here in Calgary, we just had a huge dump of snow. I am talking 6 to 10 inches of snow. It is freaking APRIL, it is suppose to be Spring for gosh sake. The only good thing about it, it gave me the opportunity to go out and get exercise by shoveling the snow off our front walk way. A little surprise for hubby when he gets home. He would have had to do it, but I wanted to get some extra exercise in so I did it.

I am looking forward to Tuesday, my pre-admissions clinic visit. I have been having pains in my upper stomach and I wanted to ask the surgical nurse if this was where my hiatias hernia is and if she thinks things are getting worse with it. I have had quite a bit of pain in the last couple of weeks. Had to stay home from work on one day because of it. Not fun. But hey, if it will push my surgical date up, I am okay with it.

I just received my sample pack from Unjury in the mail on Friday. I tried the Strawberry Sorbert protein powder today, it was really good.

Well, that is about it for this entry. I will report back after my clinic visit on Tuesday.

Hi Sheila,
Your day will be here soon and I know you will do fine. Please don't expect alot from yourself as that sets up depresseion (I know I have). Plan on getting alot of rest the first two weeks like the doctor says and don't try to be Superwoman and think you know better (like I did). Time is all we have and it takes time to internally heal all that has been done to our body. I am so glad you are my ObesityHelp friend! I am here for you and glad to know that you are an OKIE like me! I am hoping to go back to work towards the end of this next week or first of the next. I will know more after I see the doctor on Monday. Be aware that the head games can be the hardest however just get online and talk to the group and you will feel better. There is alot of great information out here and alot of people pulling for you. Time will come and go and whether we are happy or sad so just take this time to as content as possible and give the body time to heal itself.
Love you,
Granny (Shelia in OK)
