Making new WLS friends ..a great feeling .Tues Jan 13th 2009 .
So I am enjoying making new friends through this wonderful site . I am e mailing back and forth with Sharon in Peterborough ..and we are meeting up for coffee this coming Saturday ..at Timmies in Peterborough. There isnt a regular support group in the Peterborough and Kawarthas area ..we are gung ho to start one ...wish us luck !
I am also really looking forwards to getting to my first York Region support group meeting this Sunday upstairs at the Richmond Hill Loblaws . Waves to J ..the group leader x
We will leave the Norwood house early and I will hopefully arrive near the beginning . I dont have any clothes yet for the exchange ..but expect to be able to donate a TON of good stuff down the road . I do need new PJ's for my hospital stay ..so if any one has any that would be good . We are on a big frugal kick here ..hubby is going to take a massive drop in income when he retires so we are watching every penny lately .I am in a 2-3X at the moment ...its seems a waste to buy when I will be shrinking in size so soon but I need them for while in hospital .
I was down 2 pounds this morning ..yeahhh ...I think I was retaining water last week . I am trying to reign in my appetite again after last weeks debacle . I have made a big pan of chicken broth for my lunches . I will freeze some for when I am on liquids only too . I am freezing ready to heat meals for hubby and son ..for when I am away . They will have to learn to cook for them selves for a long time too ..I have told them my role as chief chef is soon coming to an end ..lol .
I have started stock piling things for me post op ..sugar free jello and apple sauce , various herbal teas ..protein powders ...I have vanilla , strawberry and cofee flavours in the Iso range from GNC.I have crystal light and also have multivitamins , B12 and liquid calcium citrate all ready to go .
So I do feel that I am getting into a more organised and prepared head space ..especially since starting to read here every day .
Surgery is 5 weeks from today ....roll on .
