Disappearing Me
On my way!
Nov 04, 2010
First of all, I am completely off caffeine now! This was not easy, but I did it and I'm very proud of myself. I also have a second sleep study tomorrow night to try a CPAP. I'm very nervous about it, I am actually scared of having something attached to my face. I hate wearing glasses and I just don't see this happening. I know it's a silly thing to be so apprehensive about, I should be more worried about surgery, but I'm not. I'm worried about the stupid CPAP.I saw my surgeon last week. They put me on the fast track because I have little insurance requirements and no major health issues. You can read more about the visit on my blog at theamazingdisappearingme.blogspot.com I am looking at a surgery date of around the first week of January. I can't wait to be sleeved! I am now on a liquid protein diet and it's gong well. I am allowed 1000 calories a day of two protein shakes plus a meal consisting of a lean protein and salad or vegetable. I've found a lot of great recipes online and have experimented with my own. I've discovered that I love mixing them with coffee or a sugar free pudding mix. Today I tried vanilla protein powder with a spoonful of Jello sugar free Cheescake pudding mix and it was really good. I also went to Wal-mart and bought a GE Single Serve Blender, which will be my new best friend.
Today I came in at under 700 calories after dinner and was thinking about how I could boost them. I did something awful. I ate a Hostess Cupcake. So, this is a note to myself next time I want one that I feel absolutely horrible. Not only with guilt and shame, but my stomach is churning a bit. I think I'm getting used to having no sugar in my system and this is making me feel very yucky!
