Day 3 of the Optifast
Dec 14, 2011
Hello all,Im on day three of my pre surgery diet. I really hope the doc doesn't expect me to loose too much on this, because I think I'm gaining! It's been weird. Sometimes I think I'm starving other times it's all I can do to choke all 6 meals down.
Ive had this annoyingly persistent cough for the last three months. I visited my PCP and they've prescribed me augmentum. Hopefully these drugs will kick it out. The good news is, I'm on my second day of meds and the coughing has already noticeably decreased!
I have two more doctor appointments next week before "S day" as I've come to think of it. It feels weird to be this close to the day. I have to turn in my FML paper work this morning. (I work nights, so HR issues are always end of the day tasks for me.) I have 3 more gift cards to get and then I am done for the season. Woohoo!
I also have my beneficiary paperwork updated and I've verified that my parents will get my home in case anything untoward happens. I've double checked on all my pre surgery tests. And I am awaiting my blood thinners by mail. I tried to put little personal messages in my holiday cards this year. I'm not going to be around for a while and I'm really going to miss everyone.
On the plus side I have a new Hindi course to keep me occupied and the booklets for Z/OS certification just waiting for me to give them some attention. I'm still researching red light therapy, but I purchased more tanning bed time at my local tanner. Kind of a vitamin D necessity for overnight workers.
Enuf for now, I'd guess.
PC ya all soon.
