Liquid diet

Aug 09, 2009

Day four of my liquid diet.  This is worse than quitting smoking.  However, I have not worked this hard and this long to screw things up now.  Only eleven days to go before actural surgery.  On Tuesday of this past week I went to Geisinger and met with the surgeon's assistant.  He says I am good to go for my RNY.  I signed all the papers, got my after surgery prescriptions, and signed all the papers.  I am ready for this to be done.  It is about 11 months since I started the whole process.  It has been a long time in coming.  I can see the reason for all the educational classes.  My head is wrapped around the concept of what I am about to do.  I know I could have never stuck to a liquid diet a year ago.  I would never have been able to handle it without the proper training and support I have received at Geisinger Medical Center.  The support is especially important.  I have learned so much from the people that "have been there, done that."  I have one more support group meeting the monday before my operation.  I will be there will bells on.
