Exhausted and small changes

Jun 13, 2014

Had a rough night last night. I am so looking forward to getting treatment for the sleep apnea. One more week to make it through before the fitting of the CPAP machine and I cannot wait! I hope this solves it.  Otherwise, I need to investigate other avenues for the tiredness. It is hard to consider anything else if I'm not feeling better.

So on the pre-op diet changes department. I have been replacing breakfasts with a protein shake. It has been pretty successful. Now I can see that I can do this and I was very concerned about this. Sometimes, when I had these tiny meals and snacks it wouldn't have done a thing for me.  But the only thing I miss is feeling really full all morning. Its not like I am hungry, but I was feeling really full after eating a bagel, and that fullness helped me limit my intake at lunch. Now I feel pretty hungry at lunch time. And for me dinner is pretty far after lunch 6-7 hours. I know, i should have a snack in the mid afternoon, which I have tried, but It doesn't enable me to reduce my intake at dinner,  so I just consider a snack as extra calories. But with the sleeve this should be better, I hope.
