Six Days out and feeling hungry?
Jul 01, 2007
I am amazed that I am hungry! Everything sounds good... lunch meat, cheese, even ceral. It is hard to fix food for my daughter and to see my husband eat. I want real food!
I have to travel for work on 7/10-11 and again on 7/15-17. I am wondering what I will be able to eat and what it will be like to eat out on my restricted diet.

Dallas needs a group!
Jun 30, 2007
OK, I am a pretty take charge kind of person. When I found out that Dallas doesn't have a support group anywhere near here I was flabergasted! So today, I put my application in to start a group.
Is there anyone reading this that would be interested in attending meetings in Garland? If so, shoot me a message.
I am looking forward to it!! I will keep you guys posted on the details.

3 Days Later
Jun 28, 2007
OK, it is three days since my surgery and I am so sore and swollen. I have pain in my shoulders and across my upper chest. I can't roll over in bed or get out of sitted position very well. This pain is very close to the pain I had after my c-section.
I am ready to be pain free and on solids! I am ready to start posting 'after' photos. I am ready to start the rest of my life.
I have surgery in nine hours!
Jun 25, 2007
Ok, well my surgery is at 7:30 in the morning! I am a little nervous, but not really about the surgery itself. I am mostly a little freaked about the after.
Today when I went to my pre-op visit I stopped and got a hamburger, fries and ice tea. So a little cheating from my plan... but let me tell you that it took MASSIVE will power not to order a Dr Pepper! Even tonight, when I saw sodas in the fridge I thought, 'you should go ahead because you will never be able to have one again'! I didn't though... but I am freaking out a bit with thoughts of 'never again'.
I am scared of only one thing really.... that when it is all said and done that I will have to have plastic surgery. Which means more money, more recovery, etc... My mother would tell me to stop worrying about things that I can't do anything about now. I can hear her now!
Anyway, wish me luck tomorrow!
