Having pain around my g-tude and must feeling depressioned. I guess this comes along with the journey. I cryed and cryed the other night and had some thoughts of food that I will no longer eat...I guess I was in a mouring stage. I guess there will be days like this.

One the bright side, I have lost 40 pounds! 

These last few weeks have really been a challenge for me. I haven't been hungry but not wanting to eat. The food that I needed to feed my body was not appealing. I had to realize that it IS fuel and NOT comfort. What's funny...I've never ate so much cottage cheese in my life!

Now I'm on the next level of eating...anything mushy! Eggs are wonderful! I still have to watch the finely chopped up meats...not sitting too well yet.

I get my g-tube out on 4/6 and it can't come soon enough. I'm tired of this thing! It's been a nuiance and painful!!!

Later y'all! 

I had my surgery 2/24/09! I was so excited that it was going to be done that I had no time being nerveous or anything. I am 6 days out and now just able to sit at my desk for any period of time. So much for thinking I could go back to work tomorrow (what was I thinking!) I'm having trouble with pain but overall everything is going ok I believe. I have my follow-up visit 3/9/09.

Well I have completed 5 months of my 6 month supervised weight loss sanctioned by my insurance company cigna because an approval can be applied for. I'm hoping my primary and documented enought to please cigna since I hear they are very picky. We'll see.

I'm on my journey.
