Day 6

Oct 25, 2010

Not really hungry or thinking of food that much...I just miss chewing. It is weird how you can miss that physical act so much...I chewed gum twice now, but it doesn't really help. I just wish the pre-op diet included something with a different texture...even if it was some sort of soy crisp or cracker...or even beef jerky or something.

I've had 3 shakes so far and I'm about to have some broth and an evening shake. :)


Also! I just got my blood results back from the doctor. Apparently, everything is perfect, except that I am slightly anemic and he said that my Vitamin D levels were REALLY low. I wasn't too surprised because with my Irish skin, I rarely go outside.
He has upped my D levels to 3000 units a day, even though that still isn't enough to get up to a normal level.

Now everything is done!

Tomorrow, I have a nutrition class at the hospital...Wednesday, I have my final meetings with my surgeon and nutritionist...and then Thursday is my meeting with the anesthesiologist. Then that is it. Woah! I can't believe it is so close!
