LOOSING!!!

Jan 06, 2009

I did it, on Friday January 2, 2009!  I am now the proud owner of a sleeve/bannana/VBG with sleeve what ever you want to call it. 

It was broth and clear liquids on the first 2 days, and I constantly feel full. 

Day 3 and I tried strained cream of potatoe soup, not bad but at a 1/4 cup and I am uncomfortable full.  It is hard to get in enough water/liquid and I feel a little dehydrated.

Day 4 I tried a 1/4 cup of cream of mushroom mixed with baby pureed beef, tastes pretty good but I still feel soooo full all of the time.  Had a real hard time getting in my liquids today but came closer than yesturday.

Today, I woke up and had some to drink first, then had crushed anti-biotics in 2 oz of apple sauce waited an hour an had more to drink.  I have just tried a 1/4 cup of pureed spaghetti O's probably not the best choice, but it is sitting well on my stomach, now I have to wait an hour to start drinking again. 

I have my follow up with Dr. Elariny on next Wednesday.  Before surgery I went for my metabolic testing at his office and weighed in at 367! my highest ever.  I did clear liquids for the week before surgery and weighed in at 351 the day of surgery.  Today I am 344 so something is working right.  I still hate my crushed meds, the anti-biotics and pain meds are the worst tasting of them all.  I will check back in next week let everyone know how it goes. 

How do I change my surgery date!!??? does anyone know.??
