Jul 08, 2008

ok so i go to ellis and see the nurse, who takes my weight, i lost only 3 lbs and informs me that my surgery has not been canceled or postponed and is due for this thursday. have to be in the hospital by 6 am, which means my fmaily and i have to be up by 4am and outta the house by 430am. ok cool.

BUT my pmd has yet to sign the freakin pre-op papers and the surgeons office has not recieved it yet!. WTF! i told them 2 weeks ago and i even had ellis hospital FAX it to them my blood results, two weeks ago!. apperantly Dr. K hasnt signed it and it is sitting in his office.

so i called the office and was royally pissed at them, and they reassured me , when Dr. K comes back in the am , he will sign them and fax to the surgeons office, the day before my surgery!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i am frieddddddddddddddd!. cant wait for this surgery and the shananigans that go with it to be over, and on my way to a healthy and slim life.

thanks all for keeping me sane here, and looking the other way when i have ranted!!!

Special thanks to Jim, Cece, Margie and Donna

tommorow is the big D day

Jul 07, 2008

ok, i have to meet my nurse, doc whatever tommorow for a weigh in. IF i lose some weight, then my surgeon will perform my surgery that she is trained to do, for obese ppls. what irks the shit outta me is, that im having the f***ing surgery BECAUSE i CANT lose weight!  i have been fat since age 9 ahd my period at age 9 and ahve been up and down weight wise all my life, so whyyyyyyyyyy do we have to lose weight before the surgery, for a surgery to help us lose weight? unf****ingbelievable. My surgeon wants me to lose weight to shrivel the liver so it can be e"easier for her to operate on me. WTF i could lose 50 lbs and she might have to cut me open... WHATEVER, i dont care anymore. whether she "approve" it or not, i dont care anymore. im so glad tommorow is the descision day, i have been worried sick, i havent slept, im just miserable, on top of it all i have my period, so... and my scale says i lost some weight, but with my period, now it says i lost only 1 freakin pound!! HAHAHAHA ( sarcastic laughter btw).. phfewwwwwwwwwwwwww, sorry ranting

Am i really losing weight?

Jul 03, 2008

omg, well i check my weigh every morning, and my scale says im losing weight. this morning it said 210.2 i dont know, my surgeons scale alwasy say im either gaining or not losing enough. 

anyways i am noticing the loose skin theory. i lost by my sclae 10 lbs so far, and i have nocticed my tummy is smaller and a bit hanging too. my upper arms are a bit more wobbly.. i guess i should be happy about it, but im always scared that my scale is "lying" lol. omg this weight lsoing thing is turning me into a freak.!

my appt with Dr. Ingram today

Jun 30, 2008

so i had my 2 week appt with my surgeon before my surgery. she wasnt too happy with my weight lost. i only lost according to their scale a measly , worthless, stupid 6 lbs, they apparently dont add my 2 lbs before that , my pmd , my gym, and my scale says i lost more... oh well. the nurse was so snooty to me, she was like, our scale is the only one that counts, ur and ur docs and gym dosent. 
anyways Dr. I said she will postpone my surgery is i dont lose more by next tuesday, so i bawled like a baby, cause i havent cheated, i ahve been faitful on my diet, i asked if eating suger free popsicle was cheating, and my surgeon said no.  so i was like, u see i dont know why im not losing, she was like maybe my metabolism, well she wasnt very nice, she was annoyed with alot of her pt's, becasue they arnt compliant, but HELL i HAVE BEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

even the ppl have noticed that i lost weight on my face area. so i say.. what do ppl like me who are compliant and dont lose weight like othe rppl to do? why are we the scapegoats for others? why does my surgeon bitch with me? i hope to god that i lose some weigth and she accepts it and my surgery wont get canceled. 

to Cece and Jim and Donna and Margeim and everyone on my email list and everyone else THANK you for being a sanity saver and giving me much needed advise. i so needed it. i needed ur encouragement and u ahvent been stingy with it
 


To scared to believe im losing weight

Jun 29, 2008

Hi everyone, well when  i went to my surgeons office for a nurse visit after being on medifast for 2 weeks, the scale said I GAINED weight, I was devesated!!! I cried so hard!. The nurse said if I dont lose the weight(18lbs) within 2 weeks they are going to cancel my surgery!!!!! OMGGGG. But the day before I saw the bariatric nurse my pmd said I lost 2 lbs. So I went and bought and electronic scale, and it said that im 212.2 lbs. my gym has the old fashioned kind and it said im 215. ( i joined the gym when I was told my surgery would be canceled) thast how scared i am. Anyways tommorow is my last visit with my surgeon before my surgery, so i dont know what she will say. im so so so scared. god i will just freakin die if they cancel it. i went through so much, test, skipped school( im a full time nursing student) and not to mention $100 becasue im 2 hours away from the surgeons office. so........ pls prayyyyyyyyyyyyyy for me ya'll cause i needed big time!!!

and for all of u guys/gals who emailed me and responded to my frantic posts, thank u thank u thank u, u all was my sanity savers, especially Cece (phatty) and jmd

I'm so upset

Jun 27, 2008

Im so so so upste, i just had my 2 week nurse visit with the baratric nurse, and she said that since I only lost 2 lbs in 2 weeks, my surgery might get cancelled, because I havent lost the amount weight Im suppose to.

I told her that I have no idea why im not losing it, im drinking like a fish... omg what am I to do? If they cancel my surgery, I have no insurance after this, what will I do? I feel so hopeless, and I just wanna give up. Why go through all this when it will be just canceled?
