Well this morning I am trying to think clearly about my future and things that are going to be changing for me ahead of time. I am going to spend the next 2 months researching the foods that I am going to be able to eat, and what I am going to do about the replacements for the medications that I take.

I have also decieded that I am going to grow my hair out with the surgery. So I am going to get another cut and color before my surgery and then I am going to grow my hair out till my weight platues. I am going to get a very special tattoo when I have lost 100 lbs, that will be a very special milestone for me...

I am feeling very emotional today because my breathing sucks. I have tried to get an appointment with a doctor here in Bakersfield that I have seen a couple of times since I have been here but he is booked up till April 30th, we plan on leaving to go home to oregon on Saturday evening or sunday, depending on when our birdies fly out of their nest.. I made an appointment for the 25th for my Doctor back home.  So it sounds like I may have to make a trip to Urgent care to see if I can get some more steriods (prednisone) to last me till I can get the crap in my chest to clear up!

Well those are the trials and tribulations of trina for the day.....

So I am really ready for this surgery, and I guess it is probably normal to want to go out and eat all of your favorite things that you know that you know you are not going to eat again after your surgery. But I have been horrible, I have just been constantly eating and eating.... I haven't been getting full because I am on prednisone and I never get full when I am taking that stuff... But I am just going insane!!! I know that I am disappointing my husband cause I am putting on weight from my constant eating..... I haven't been feeling well because my constant coughing and asthma attacks from my having to breath the smog here in the crotch of california, and my acid reflux... I constantly am fighting to breath which takes away any energy that I have. Saturday night I started coughing when I was cutting an apple in the kitchen and it was such a powerful cough I set the knife down cause I knew the cough was going to take over and the next thing I knew I was on the floor trying to figure out where I was... that is the second time I have passed out from coughing.  Man I really hope that the surgery makes a huge difference with my asthma problems!  I am out for today. hugs, trina
