Tarin C.
Two Classes and a Support Group
Feb 28, 2010
Sounds like a movie... Anyway, people are asking that I blog this, so I better get more on top of writing.I have two classes left of my 6 month education course...This Monday, March 1st, and again March 15. Then I can get my surgeon referral! I have started preparing a little: I got a Magic Bullet (which I've practiced using a few times lately), some Vitamin B12, water bottles that don't have straws or sippy tops, and I will start getting more vitamins when I get closer to the surgery date.
I went to my first support group on Wednesday. And I must tell you, there were a LOT more people there than I had imagined. I was quite impressed with the group. And everyone has something to say. And I have to thank Lorrie for helping me so much, she is so encouraging and thoughtful. She brought me a protien shot, which I have been looking for, and can't seem to find them. But now at least I know what they look like, so maybe it will be easier to find now.
I am hoping I get my referral pretty quickly, hopefully before my birthday. This will be a great birthday present for me! Start the birth of the NEW Tarin!
I am still on the yoyo, I lost 12 pounds and gained it back. And every day that goes by I find some new part of my body that is uncomfortable or in pain. If it wasn't for the hope of this surgery, I don't think I'd have much hope at all. I know I'm not as big as some people, but I think I'm at the limit of what my body can tolerate. It's too hard to walk much, to hard to sleep, to hard to stand and do dishes. Soon, it won't be so hard!
You'll probably next hear from me after my last class. Until then....
