Everything has been going so great with my RNY surgery and weight loss!  But my brain is kinda fuzzy!!!  I'm not hungry nor need the food, but my brain is like "FOOD" all the time.  I am an emotional eater, and my brain is not thinking clearly about this surgery and this process.  I want to explain to my own self that I DON'T NEED the additional food, or even crave it!  UGH...  Anybody else out there experience this, and found a way to get over it, or concur it, please share your in site.

Thanks for listening,
Jess

My surgert ws Jan 29th, and I finally got to come home yesterdaY!  Ihad a few conplication, which turned my 2 hour  surgery time, took over 6, and I had to stay in the hospital o few extra days!!!  :-)  But I am so thrilled to be back at home, and getting my "life" on the right track!!!  I m soooooo glad that I got this chance to have my surgery.  PHEW, okay Now I getting kinda tired, So I am off tosip, sip, sip and rest, and rest some more!!!  Catch ya oh !   :-)

So I start my liquid diet tomorrow morning, and then my surgery is now on friday the 29th!  I am actually excited now.  After talking to my dr's and getting SOME MUCH needed resurrance, I feel a lot better about it, and releaved when all is said and done!  :-)  I lost 39 pounds in the past 2 1/2 months, and thats the only reason I didn't have to do the 2 week liquid diet!!!  PHEW...  But I have found myself today eating everything that I would NEVER normally eat!!!  Fried chicken for dinner, chocolate cake,  and diet coke!  I don't really like chocolate, and fried chicken is NOT my favorite, but I guess my brain it thinking it WILL be a long time before I can ever taste these things again, so I am going out with a BANG... lol.  I wouldn't be supprised if I didn't gain a couple pounds before friday!!! 

Thanks for all the wonderful advise my OH friends, and PLEASE SAVE ME A SEAT ON THE LOSERS BENCH!!!  :-)

Oh yeah, I am planning on taking my laptop with me to the hospital so I will post as soon as I am feeling up to it!!! 

Thanks,
Jess

Okay!  My surgeon's office called today, and apparently there have been some over bookings, and they wanted to move my surgery date from FEB 4th, to JAN 29th!  THATS ONLY 4 DAYS FROM NOW!!!  Other wise they would have to push it off for a couple weeks!!!  I am totally un prepared.  I haven't bought ANYTHING yet, that I need, and I already made arrangement for someone the week of the 4th to care for my daughter...  UGH...  CHANGE is killing me...  I told her that I really didn't want to move my date for work / daycare issues, but truefully I am NOT ready!  :-(  I keep wanting to back out, but I KNOW DEEP DOWN I NEED THIS, just scared outta my mind.  I know that I can go to the store and get what I need this week, but I am not sure how my job is going to react with me leaving a week early!    She called me back and left me another Voice Mail to call her back in the morning, that she had an update for me, so we shall see in the morning, what she has to say, but please pray for me, I am really physicking myself out over this one...

PHEW...  14 days to surgery and COUNTING...  No pre-op DIET for me...  woohoo!!!!

Will this week ever end!  I have had a ruff couple of days!  My baby girl who is 2 is stick again, and I haven't been able to keep ANYTHING down for 3 days now!!!  I thought it was just a virus, but I am not to sure now!!!  I have all my pre-op testing tomorrow afternoon.  That should be SO much fun! ha ha...  My one day off, and I get to spend it at the SLOWEST hospital in the world! lol  But I will be glad when Feb 4th gets here, so I can start my new life...  I am so ready, excited, and SCARED outta my mind!  I have had several Major surgery's in the past, but the last 2, I freaked out in the OR, and I had to be sedated, cause, I tried to convince the Dr that I was OK, and didn't need surgery anymore, and actually tried to leave the last time! (Even though I was having a c-section, and I kept telling my Dr, that She could just stay in forever...lol)  So I am freaking out just a little bit!  Did I mention that I quit breathing in my surgery before that!  :-(  I guess thats what scares me the most.  I know that I NEED this surgery, and that my body needs it as well, just nervous about the whole process...  PHEW... Now I feel better now that its all written on paper, or e-paper! lol

Have a great week everybody!!! 

I had a scheduled appt yesterday with my surgon, and got the last bits sqared away!  All my pre-opt tests are complete and approved.

Surgery is scheduled for mid January!!!  AND I can't wait to start my new life...  I have lost 22 pounds pre-opt, and I am so pround of my self, as the holidays approch and I keep looking to the future...  :-)

My family says I have become a health nut, and I COUNT way to many carbs!  lol  :-)  I think its actually kind of funny!!!  I even have my 2 year old watching what she eats as well!  :-) 

Maybe is somebody have forced these habbits on me growing up, I wouldn't be where I am now!!! 

Well thats it for now.  I will post more as I get closer to my surgery date!!!  WOO-HOO for SURGERY in JANUARY 2010!!!  :-)
