feeling sick

Jun 24, 2009

Well, thought I was doing great with food, having no problems with everything I've tried and then I got to the third stage.  I had some cottage cheese yesterday and boy was I sick!  Really didn't realize how bad it would be.  I'm one of those people who will do anything not to get sick so I suffered through it.  Back to liquids for me. YUM  Hopefully the rest of the week will be better.

feeling good, but some people.......

Jun 16, 2009

Ok, sorry about this little rant, but I am so MAD!!  Talked to my father yesterday, who didn't even know that I had had the surgery and when I told him he insulted me for having it.  You know, the same old, you lost it before without messing with your insides, why do that?  Diet and excersice, he says, like I haven't been doing that my whole adult and even teen years!!! This man has told me throughout my life how fat I am and now that I've made what I think is the best decision I could make to change it he makes me feel like crap.  I need to stay away from him, he only hurts me and makes me feel horrible about myself.    The sad part is, at 38, I still want his approval, love, and support.  He has never been able to do that.  Well, I let him know that last night and I think it's time for me to move on and forget him for awhile. 

Besides that little drama, I am feeling SO much better.  It is so nice to have OH to turn to right now.  Every question I have has been answered on here. I love IT!!  Finally got to have some "real" food today, cream of wheat and cream of potato soap, yum, LOL.   Looking forward to the next phase!

4th day post op

Jun 12, 2009

Home from the hospital and a little sore.  I have to be honest, when I really woke up after surgery I was in quite a bit of pain, but I had several adhesions from previous surgeries so that was most likely why it was so painful. 
When they tell you to walk, WALK!! It helped tremendously and the more I did it the better I felt.  Now that I'm home I am feeling a little worn out but the pain is considerably better.   I'm not hungry at all, so it's a little hard to get in all the liquids that I need but I just keep measuring and sipping, measuring and sipping.
Looking forward to a full recovery!

I'm Approved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

May 22, 2009

My paperwork was sent in last Friday and clinicals sent in Monday.  Today I got THE CALL.  I'm offically approved for surgery!!  The feeling of relief is indiscribable.  I'm scheduled for surgery June 9th so I start my liquid protien diet on Tuesday.  Hopefully I'll drop a few pounds prior to surgery.  Have a great holiday!!

Paper work sent in for approval:0)

May 09, 2009

My paper work for approval was sent in this week.  I'm nervous about being denied because my weight has fluctuated so much in the last couple of years.  In 2007 I had gotten down to 215 which is still over 35 BMI with comoribities.  Hopefully I will be approved.  They penciled me in for June 9th!!!  Wish me luck!!
