2 Months Out

Sep 25, 2007

Wow! It has been a minute since I've added to my blog! I am now 10 weeks out. I'm down 23 pounds and 25 inches. I feel so much better already and am thrilled to have lost! I work out 4x week and eat healthy. 

I co-founded a support group with a fellow OH member, GottaLuvAve. This month will be our second meeting. Out first meeting had a good turn out with 8 people. I am excited about building the group and all of the fun things we have planned for future meetings.

6 Days Post Op

Jul 18, 2007

Wow! What a journey the past 6 days have been! I was ready for the lack of food but not for the pain and adjustment. I wish I would have been more educated prior to the surgery. My mornings have been pretty good so far. Yesterday I regurgitated  a few hours after eating some oatmeal. The nurse thinks I prob over ate. I had 1/2 cup, next time I will try 1/4 cup. I was miserable all day after that. I am eating a small amt of something mushy for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Trying to get my protein shakes in between. I have gotten 60 grams in a day once so far. I'm supposed to get it in daily. I am taking everything on a daily basis!

As of this morning I am down 7 lbs since surgery! That makes feeling so crappy these last few days a little better!

The Night Before My New Life

My surgery is at 7:30 in the morning! Yea! It's finally here! I am ready to get it over with. My fiance and I are meeting friends at my favorite restaurant (Saltgrass) tonight for my "last supper". Good bye to eating until I bust!

Two weeks until the big day! I am trying to get my mind wrapped around the thought of 5 wks on a liquid diet!  Not sure how that's going to work out for me! I will definitley follow the plan and hope to not go crazy while I'm at it. 

I feel like I am going to be reborn in a sense. My old way of life will be no more. I have been a serious foodie all of my life and enjoy food very much. I feel like I won't be able to enjoy it like I used to. Maybe that's just my evil brain working against me. 

Regardless I know in my heart this is the best plan for me. I am currently 100 lbs over weight and have the energy of an 90 yr old. I am too young to be as tired as I constantly am. I'm sick and tired of being tired!!!
