Cardiologist cleared me for surgery!

Jul 25, 2012

Yes! Went to get my EKG today and get cleared by cardio and it is done! One step closer to being a loser for good! My boyfriend said to me, "everything is getting done but what are you going to do when you are all done and you have to wait!" I never really thought about it until he said something. I will have all of my requirements done by September 14th, and I don't have surgery scheduled until October 11th. I can always hope for someone to cancel! :=)

A girl can dream, can't she? LOL

I am trying to find things to keep me busy for 2 months. I don't work at the moment, so I am home all the time. I have already gone through old clothes, getting them freshened up and ready to go for when I lose some weight. I have basically given away bags of clothes that fit me now, but I have no intentions on wearing them come winter, so out they went~!

Going to be getting kids ready for school soon, then what??? Ack! Will still have a month to sit and wait! I am focusing on trying to lose an additional 30 lbs before surgery. I want to be under 300 before surgery! But, the past few weeks have come to a halt with weight loss. i was losing an average of 2-3 lbs per week for the past 3 months, but now i'm going weeks only losing 2-3 lbs. I'm only eating about 800 calories a day, very little sugar, no bread, trying to eat lots of veggies and chicken! I need to get some more walking in, but it hurts my knees. I walk one day and down for 3 trying to deal with pain!

Well, August 1st, will be my last weigh in and August 9th is appt with pulmonology (sp)! Then waiting until September for Nut! I'll check in again soon!
