Setbacks and Sidelines
Jan 18, 2010
I have to reschedule my surgery. My husband has been called to active duty to help with recovery efforts in Haiti. I can't have this surgery and not have him here.I've lost more than 12 pounds in two weeks of experimental post-surgery dieting. The prospect of delaying for up to 6 months has really bummed me out. In the past two days I have had two boxes of girls scout and 2 bags of cinnamon heart candy.
Not passing this test well, am I?
To get back on track I am going to read Mindless Eating recomended by the psych Doc.
I will meet with the nutritionist too. Maybe work up a real nutrition plan made of post op foods to practice.
I just wanted to get moving on this. Now I have to deal with deployment stress, teenagers, and college graduation by myself. I had the luxury of being very self focused about preparing for the surgery. Life reminded me it isn't my mission to be for myself.
