Discouraged
Apr 16, 2007
Well, I have been stuck at 290 for a little over a week. I am gettnig in my water, and most of my protein. i am having the hardest time with the limited diet i have been on. I can't stand bland food, and that is what I have been having to eat. Today I get moved to stage 4, but I am still worried I will have to eat bland food. i have e-mailed the dietician about seasoning my food, but I have yet to hear from her. If anyone out there reading this has any simple recipes I would LOVE to have them.
Well, I better get back to work!
Well, I better get back to work!
Tomorrow is the Day...........
Mar 26, 2007
Well, tomorrow is the day. I am scheduled for surgery at 7:30 in the morning. Bryan and I have to be there at 5:30. I am scared and excited at the same time. I have EJ's bags packed to stay with Jennifer tonight and tomorrow, and then she is staying with Donna on Wednesday. The next time I post I will be on the losing side of the street.
Protein Samples
Mar 20, 2007
Well, I got my protein samples from a couple of different places. One of them was Protica and the other from Susan Maria's Bariatric eating. I am so excited, I got them out and looked at each and everyone, twice!! I have one week to go and I will be on the losing side. I was reading through my manual from Dr. H today and got a little scared. I have known the risk factors, but the death one kinda got to me today. 1 in 200. I have been praying for this for some time, and I know in my heart, God provided us with the avenue to get the money for this surgery, granted it is a loan with a 23% interest rate, but still. I know that if I don't have this surgery I will die. I already have high blood pressure, which my Dr's seem to be having a hard time controlling. I know it was just a matter of time before diabetes, and a heart attack happens. I have already had a dizzy spell that can't be explained. I guess I will go for today. i will be much better tomorrow.
Date is set
Mar 02, 2007
The date for surgery has been set. It is for March 27, 2007. I am excited, scared, nervous and in shock all at the same time.
