Oct 02, 2008
First week back to work and I am soooooo tired. Still have bloating and constipation. When will it go away? Gas X has helped a little, but the constipation is bad. Everything else is going ok.

Well I great news today. I went to the endrocrynologist and he has taken me off all my medicine except for Thryoid and Cholesterol. He also said that by December my next visit I will be taken off Cholesterol meds and lower my thryoid RX. How excited am I? I weighed in at 226. That is 8 pounds down since 9/10. I am on my way.....
Pitty Party for One....... just that kind of day!

I am sitting here on a Sunday morning, I am getting depressed more each day. I'm not sure why, because I am finally headed in the weight loss direction. Negative pounds in stead off adding for once. It is official two and half weeks off of work and I am bored out of my mind. Problem being I couldn't see my self at work because my behind gets sore from sitting to long.
I guess this would be a day that I think what the hell have I done? Deep down I did the right thing I know, but I am just having a down day.

14 days
Sep 12, 2008
Two weeks from surgery. I am hungry and full at the same time. According to all of my OH friends it is HEAD HUNGER! I will make it. It is a few more steps towards my new life. I am having extreme pain on my left side. Muscle pain I think... heating pad is my friend..lol. Well I am off to take a walk down the hall. I have walked up and down my hall way multiple times a day, but that is what is going to make me better. stay tuned.....
First Week!
Sep 07, 2008
Well today is one week that I have been home from the hospital. What a difference that a week makes. Last week I thought I was going to die from the trip home in the car. I took so much pain meds that I was a drugged up person. I slept most of the time. Good thing is that I am down 20 pounds since surgery. How excited am I! None of the clothes that I came to my parents house with fit me. They are TOO BIG! Yes that is what I said. That is not something that I have said in a while. I can't wait to get new clothes. I am not going to buy anything at this time. I still have 18/20 pants at my apartment. I have been staying at my parents house for the past week. I am ready to go home. My follow up doctor appointment is on Wed. 09/10. Stay tuned.....
TODAY IS THE DAY!!!!
Aug 27, 2008
OK so I was up at 3:30am, I am wide awake and I am nervous. My parents are picking me up at 5:15 so that we can be at the Cleveland Clinic for 6:00 am. I would like some water, but I know that it isn't an option. Today starts my new healthier life. Talk next week....
One Day to go....
Aug 27, 2008
I am sitting here and I am so nervous. I have cleaned,washed clothes, played games on the computer. AHHHHHHHHHHH.... my friends are calling to wish me luck. I am excited don't get me wrong. I am not even hungry today which is weird because I have been starved the entire time of the liquid diet.
I will be calling in about 30 minutes to find out the time of my surgery. I will be back throughout the day....
6:00 am tomorrow I need to be at the hospital, 7:15 surgery time. Now it is real. Tomorrow is my new beginning. I can't wait!!

2 DAYS till Surgery
Aug 25, 2008
I am getting excited.... lets not forget that today I have to start the lovely bowl prep. That I am not looking forward to...lol! I have so much to do around the house prior. I guess I may be nervous cuz I am cleaning up a storm. I can't sit still and I am going crazy. My poor boyfriend Jamie, he has had to put up with me snapping and being bitchy..that is nerves I know because I am not like that normally. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH the anticipation/anxiety...stay turned today...it is only 8:30 am.
As the day progressed I felt worse, but I know it is for a good cause.

LIQUID Diet
Aug 20, 2008
Well I am doing the liquid diet for the next week. It has been 7 days already...here is the problem. I have spent the majority of my time the past 4 days in the bathroom. I am suppose to take the golytlye two days prior to surgery, but how much more can I go to the bathroom. Maybe I don't want the answer to that one.
I am so nervous and can't sleep..Dr. Chand said that it was normal. I am preparing to spend time at my parents house after surgery. At least until I am feeling better or off the pain meds. I can't wait until the weight starts falling off.
