Two days until surgery...
Aug 02, 2009
Well, I have two more days until I check into the hospital. Funny that I haven't been too nervous the last few days. I guess I have resigned myself to fact that whatever happens I am going to make the best of it. I know I can tolerate the liquid diet after the last two weeks... I was very afraid the protein would be something I would have to gag down, but it's actually not too bad. Now if I can just train myself to sip slower I'll have it made! Lol.I have lost about fourteen pounds in the last two weeks from the pre-surgery diet. I was hoping for more but I guess I can't get greedy. It will come off eventually.
My ankles aren't as swollen as they have been for the last six months either, so already I'm seeing a slight improvement in my health. I am very optimistic about my future. More so than I have been for a long time. After the paralysis of my leg six years ago I was so depressed, and now I finally have a positive goal to reach. I know it isn't going to be easy, (but with my husband's support, along with my family) - I just know I can do this.
Well that's all for today.
359# minus the fourteen = 345# and counting.
