December 29 Update

Dec 29, 2008

Well I hope that you all had a great Christmas, we did, we were able to spend time with all of our kids over the holidays.
I visited the sleep center on the 23rd and now I am trying to get used to wearing a c-Pap machine when I sleep.  It is not going very well at present but apparently I stop breathing an average of 17 times per hour when I sleep so its no wonder I have trouble getting enough rest.
Today was my day to see the surgeon, I went thinking that maybe he would be able to give me a surgery date - however he wasn't even there, he had picked up some extra OR time so was operating. He helps alot of people ( he did surgery for colon cancer on my sister and my mom) so it was good that he got some extra time do do some of his surgeries.
The good news though is that I was down  almost 5 pounds since December 1 so I was pretty pleased, we had so many food related functions this month that I was a bit nervous. I am now down 55 lbs from my highest weight in 2006, and 38 since I first saw him.
My next appointment is January 26th and by then the gastroscopy will be done and I think that is the last hurdle, at least that I know of.
My resolution is to make sure that I measure everything so that I only get 1 cup 3 times a day for the next four weeks and see if I can get a really good loss for January.
