I am getting better everyday. I still have pain on the left side but i can handle it. WOW i lost 20 pounds in 2 weeks 20 i can't believe it that helped up my spirts. I have been very down lately and crying alot i feel depressed so i asked the nurse today and she said this is normal. I get to go to soft foods next week and i can't wait until i can have some cottage cheese  I hate this drink stuff and i have such a hard time trying to get all my protein in i just don't want anything. I hope the weight keeps dropping off i am down 65 pounds since i started this. I was 605 and now i am 540 and i notice the difference alittle bit i hope that i can break into the 300's by summer. wish me luck.

Well i made it, i had some small problems but i am getting better now. i am having a real hard time getting my protein and water in. At night i get this real bad pain in my belly and chest that puts me down for the night. i asked the doc and he said that is the gas. boy never knew gas would hurt so bad. I am up walking but still have alot of pain in my belly, i have to hold it up when i walk but soon it will be gone WooooHooo. My Dr. is the best he would check on me everyday and when i had a problem with 2 nurse helpers he took care of it (i didn't care for my hospital) and when i went home he called me from just see how i was feeling, i never had a doctor do that before, just call to check on me when i am home. i would like to thank everyone for the good thoughts and prayers they helped alot. Well off to walk some. i will try to update later.

Tomorrow is my day please wish me luck i am so ready to get moving on with my new life. I will be doing bowel prep at 5:00 and then of to take a bathbefore bed. I will post when i get home from hospital tell let everyone know i am ok. Thanks to all the people who have kept me in there thoughts. Everyone move down the losers bench i'm going need a seat to.

Well i have 2 more days to go. I have to do my bowel prep sunday and monday is the big day. The nurse i will have getting me ready is a mom at my daughters gymnastics so i know her and that kinda helps. I am so ready to lose this weight. i am down 48lbs since i started this i had to lose weight before i got my surgery date then i lost 18 on this 2 week liquid diet. i still struggle with stress but i am finding people to talk to which helps. Well wish me luck and hope happy thoughts i'm gonna do this.

Well i was away for the weekend with my daughters at a gymnastics meet and was able to talk with my hubby about how i am feeling, it helped alot he is very supportive of me. i going through i need this for me. My daughter qualified for state WOOOHOOO i am so proud of her. anyway i just read my last post and i am glad to have people help me along with encouragement i need alot. Well 7 more days to go wish me luck i'm going in.

I have been reading alot of the post on here today and it has got me scared from hell. i was cool with everything i am doing and i trust my surgeon but after reading these about complcations i am thinking hard. i have 9 days left and i have 4 kids and husband that i can't leave. i look at them and think why am i going to do this am i going to die? am i just going to make myself sick? I have been so excited about getting this but know i don't know i hear good and bad i knew there were risks but damn i didn't know it could get this bad. i wish i didn't read all of them being so close to surgery. OH MY i am sooooo scared not to mention crying alot from feeling sad for some reason all i can think about is my babies. they are my whole world.

Well today was the surgery pre-testing and it was easy i was happy. I worry about getting my blood drawn because they have such a hard time finding a vain, but god bless this lady she got it right away and there was no pain WOOHOO . Anyways the liquid diet has gotten alot easier, it's not bothering me so much now i still have a headache and sometimes feel light headed but i can deal with it now, before i thought i wouldn't make it. well 10 more days and counting until surgery.

Well i am trying and i am fine untill my stress gets home from school. My kids are the love of my life but they sure can drive me crazy Not to mention my monthly friend came to visit and the cravings are through the roof. I have to admit i had a very small weekness tonight and had a nibble of something healthy but from here on out i will be good. Stress is very hard for me to deal with sometimes but I am trying to get it together. i don't wanna give up I need this in the worst way because if i don't i will die and leave my family and they need me. I like being able to come on here and vent the more i type the better i feel. tomorrow is a new day and it will be better.

Well todays is the day i start the liquid fast and let me tell you this sucks I am the person who dose all the cooking for the family (if i didn't the kids would starve because daddy can't cook) and the look and smells are driving me wako. How in the heck am i going to make it through this for 2 weeks i am hopeing this will get easier as i go. I am trying the chicken broth thinking it soup which the warm seems to be calming my tummy down. I am hopeing i will be getting alot of support on this site, lord knows i will need all i can get.

Well went to the liquid fast class today and meet with the doctor. I was not scared until now they tell you all the things that could go wrong not what i wanted to hear but he needs to tell us. Well as of today i have lost 32 lbs since i started this and i feel real proud of myself i have always had such a hard time with weight loss (the yo yo thing) but i am so excited about having this surgery that i am really motivative to do this. Well i need to make it through the weekend and i will start my liquid diet monday. I have to go away for the weekend one of my daughters has a gymnastics meet and it is so hard to remember not to run to the stand when i am hungry or just smell the people's food around me that is the worst. Well off for some hope tomorrow will be another good day.
