DAY 8 & 9 OF PRE-OP

May 21, 2013

Well, yesterday was a much better day all around.  I am having no issues with the shakes and I managed to get in 3.5 out of 4 which is better than I did on the weekend.  I am having my shakes every 4 hours like my dietician suggested and it really works to keep me from feeling hungry.  I also managed to get out for a nice walk with my husband in the evening.  We went about 2.5 miles (4 km) at a decent, but not strenuous pace.  It was really nice and I managed to get away with only one bug bite!!!  LOL!

I was still struggling with having some second thoughts about the entire procedure though.  I figure that it's the weight loss and feeling better from the pre-op diet that puts the thought in my head that I could just lose all the weight on my own without having surgery.  I know it's only a passing thought; I know the truth about myself and my weight loss/gain history.  If I could keep off the weight and maintain my own health then I wouldn't have considered surgery in the first place!!!  Again, my nerves are getting the better of me for the moment, but I am trying to concentrate on the positives in the long run instead!

So far Day 8 was pretty good and Day 9 is going well.  It's still early.
