Hello weight loss!
Oct 26, 2006
7/8/06- Yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I have been approved. They actually approved me in less than a week. crazy. I am so lucky!
9/3/06- So, 4 days until surgery. My close friend had hers last week. Her surgery went well. So excited for her! I'm not worried about the surgery itself. Mostly about the actual hospital stay. I'm a nurse- I have never been on the other side. I hope I don't drive the nurses crazy.
My life is changing in 4 days. Amazing. I a little nervous. I have a size 16 dress to fit into by oct 14th. good luck to me. I am ready to go. My mother is ready- the person I was worried about the most. I have run into a couple poeple who disagree with my decision. They have let me know. I have been saying- It's my decision. My decision is not based on your opinion. and if I'm really irritated I say
- I never asked for your opinion. I'll let you know when I want it.
That last part is really fun. If you say it with a smile they can't get mad. Hello protien shakes!!!
9/6- So, tommarow is the big day. I've been a bit nervous & anxious. Nothing a dose of ativan can't do. I have one month to drop like 3 dress sizes for Sharla's wedding. Yeah, good luck to me.
9/12- So the first day was a total fog. Mostly because I was very high on morphine. trust me- iT was nesessary. I know who I talked to that day but I'm not sure what was said. It hurt. Waking up was not pleasent- but my anestesiologist...I have no idea how to spell that...you know the guy who puts you under...he was hysterical. He had me laughing before I had my happy drugs. He showed me pictures of his vacation in Tahiti and told me to think of it while we were in the OR. I was funny because in the middle of the shaking and horrid pain- I was thinking of tahiti- though not on purpose. And in the OR they put me on the table and strapped me down and I remember saying- "shouldn't you buy me a drink first?"
SO, I'm like 8 lbs down. I had gained 6 before surgery. I'm so freakin' tired. I take a nap after everything. But I do perk up better in the afternoon. I have been nervous about getting dehydrated but I finally found water that didn't taste like crap. yeah, my taste buds have changed.
I'm quitting my second job- I know it will be a struggle- but I can't focus on me and my health while working 2 night shift jobs (7pm - 730am) It's not fair to me or my body. That's all for now. More later!!!!
