Almost myself again!

Nov 28, 2009

So since I last bloged I had to quit one of the jobs I started. It was just to much for me! To much standing and stairs! I also came down with a really bad flu.. Had to go to urgent care.. It was bad.. The meds they gave me made me even more sick and dizzy! I never want to feel like that again! But now I feel much better! I still am not getting my portein drinks in, I have tired everything under the sun...Yuck!!!!!!! I go Dec 3rd to the Doc. so I'm sure I will get yelled at! But whatever!!!!! I have lost a total of 46 lbs. since surgery! I am very happy about that! This week I haven't lost anything :( But thats ok!!!! Well I almost feel like my self again....I'm glad it gets better!

Feeling ok!

Nov 03, 2009

So I have to say I'm feeling better than I did! I cant wait to feel like my self again!

I have lost 39 lbs. since the day I got home from the Hospital! So I cant complain! But I would have to say anyone on this diet would lose that kind of weight with or without surgery!

So last week I got two new jobs in one day! Crazy! I start one of them tonight and the other one Thursday after noon! They are both part time jobs and should be pretty easy! I cant wait to get out of the house!

I'm still have a hard time getting all the portein in! But I'm working at it! Cant wait to eat some better tasting foods! I am so bord with what I can eat!

Alright time to get off the computer and take a shower! Bye for now!

5 days post-op

Oct 17, 2009

OK! I'm 5 days post-op and feeling like shit....I do feel alittle bit better each day, but this sucks!!!!

I cant drink any kind of protein, it all makes me sick! I just don't know what to do...

I am very weak! Just refilled my pain meds...But dropped my doses down to 1 tsp instead of 2.... I thought that was what was making my ill....I 'm not really sure... the only thing that I can seem to keep down is water, and broth.... I cant tell you how much this sucks!

I knew this wasn't going to be easy...But I never knew how hard it was really going to be!!!!!

I will re-post when I'm feeling better.. I really need to go relax....

Oct 11, 2009

16 more hours till my surgery! I'm am so excited! I am down 13 lbs. in 5 days! Just from my liquid diet!!!!! yeah me! So that makes me 296 lbs.

So yesterday I cleaned out my closet and all my dresser drawers and ended up with 4 garbage bags full of clothes and 1 garbage bag full of shoes...That felt so good!!!!

Cant wait till tomorrow! I just don't know what to do with my self... Bag is packed. House is cleaned. Kids are off to my father in-laws till Monday night. (they have no school tomorrow)! Laundries done. Dishes are done. I received all my supplements yesterday from bariatricwellnessstore.com... And the house is packed with food for the family....I guess all I can do is just wait!!!!!

Wish me luck for tomorrow! Thoughts and prayers are greatly appreciated!

See you all on the losers side real soon!

Call from the nurse..

Oct 07, 2009

So I just got a call from Coreen my nurse and was told that the results from my Hidda Scan on my gallbladder came back border line for not working properly...So they are going to remove my gallbladder on Monday when they do my RNY... Which is ok with me... I don't want any problems with it later on when I lose a bunch of weight...
