One Week Down!

May 10, 2012

Okay...week one after surgery is over!!  I started my full liquids two days early because I just could not stomach another two days of broth.  So far, so good!  I feel a lot of different things going on in my belly area.  I have been able to drink more fluids this week which is scarier (if anyone can relate).   i thought I could hold a certain amount, but it seems I am able to drink about 2-4 ounces of water or other liquid in one sitting.  Is this normal???

Well, I am still not eating or drinking anywhere near what I was able to before surgery.   I guess I am just scared of going back where I came from.  I know many can probably relate to this feeling.  I pray God continues to bless and increase my health and livelihood.  if anyone can remember being where I am now, I welcome the information!!

Almost There!!!

Apr 21, 2012

Well, while lying in the bed Thursday morning, I received a call from my baraitric advocate....I HAVE BEEN APPROVED!!! Surgery Date: MAY 3, 2012

I have been waiting to get here for years!  Now, I think I may be getting cold feet, but don't worry I have plenty of socks!  These last couple of days have seemed so surreal.  I will begin my pre-op diet on Monday April 23, 2012.  I had been kinda keeping the fact that I was trying to have the surgery under close wraps.  I only told a few select individuals. 

I am nervous, excited, scared, unsure, and elated at the same time!  I have been looking at the things I need for this pre-op diet and for ater the surgery.  It seems a bit overwhelming!! HELP ANYONE!!
