Jan 11, 2008
ok, holidays are out and i need to get back on the real diet. yes i did cheat here and there. just being honest. but of course controlling my self to just a bite of this and a bite of that and that's it. I'm at 258 lbs today and have lost a total of 60 lbs. very little excersize ( i need more time through out the day) I snack through out the day works best for me, i do feel hungry constantly! even right now and it's 2:58am but imma go straight to bed. my main survival food is tuna on ritz. oh and gummy vites! I didn't check the sugar count on those, because they are the only multivitamins i can tolerate. Centrum reg capsules way too big for me. I even tried cutting them in pieces but nope couldn't do it. I then tried the orange flavored chewables... yuck!!! then i tried the liquid... a little better... but still yuck. hairloss has been out of control, but that's normal. other then that doing well.

2 days out of surgery and i feel strange. probably because of all the medicine and the IV *ick* everything wet well but when i was in recovery i was in pain, and it seemed as if i was the only one in pain. the pain lasted all Friday up to about 7pm whe i asked the docter for something stronger for my pain like morphine. he said it was ok, and gave me a small dose he said. it helped a little but that night i didn, sleep well.
Saturday morning was a little better, i didn't have anything to eat untill noon where they brought me chicken broth, tea and apple juice. pain was ok, at random times of the day i would feel sharp pains around the area where the drainage bottle comes out from or they could be gases? they would just come and go.
Today my dad and i are at the hotel room, we got here about 2 hours ago. and it feels good to see the light of day. last night i dreamt of food and of course my favorite things to eat, again, i think it was because of all the drugs.
The Doctors over here have been excellent. i couldn't ask for better. i would highly recommend them to anyone. the nurses at the hospital were good too. they only speak spanish, but all were attentive and attended me well.

Today I'm on Day 3 of the Pre-op liquid diet. feeling ok not hungry at all today , just feeling a little dizzy , probably because the lack of food and nerves. I'm off to McAllen, TX in a few hours, and meeting with the Doctor. It all seems completely unreal to me.

I am currently on the liquid diet and it's ok, being the first day, I just try not to think of eating and keep my mind busy, even thought i know i have to go to the market and buy food for the rest of the family. I'm also waiting for the financial company to aprove the small loan that i asked for. feeling nervous
