It is like I have to find something to worry about with this... I am all excited, its finally here in 5 days and Im worried about anesthesia...fear of the unknown I guess! How many people have had this surgery now...?

Okay...last week I did really good with this whole pre-op diet...stayed on my shakes all day now today I went to the grocery store tonight got some low carb things... roasted chicken, some cold shrimp, pickles little bit of lettuce some cheese and nothing else...I ate a whole bag of lettuce myself tonight! It was a light pre-maid thing had dried cherrys little bit of low fat asian vingerarette dressing  I had about 1.5 pieces of chicken a handful of shrimp and a few slices of cheese like 4. And 2 real cokes... I do stick through with the low cal all day maybe I am not getting enough...? When I come home Im not feeling like I am bored so I have to eat...Im flippin hungry! I don't want to blow this... Im nervous about pre-op testing maybe that is why I ate so much tonight...I have no reason to be nervous about pre-op testing...just being me! (Its just the standard pre-surgical tests) I have 7 more days plenty of time to straighten up! Right!

8 MoRe DaYs To Go

Well Im notfreaking out by any means. This is it! My last week...I dont know what to call it I dont want to say before my next life of my new life but in a sense...thats what it will be. I went shopping with one my girlfriends yesterday she is about 4 months pregnant...just starting to see the little bean pop-out we decided to go and look at maternity clothes for her...it was fun she was worried that I would have my feelings hurt... I love her to death! she is the most caring pesron I know with all of her excitement (baby) she has been so supportive for me. So we were looking around for clothes...she is so ready to buy clothes but its still a little too early...Well Lane Bryant was having a really good sale 40% off of everything EVERYTHING!! So I said to her that I should go buy a pair of pants to wear home from the hospital...I can do some serious damage in Lane Bryant (and she knows this) I paced back and fourth in the store my friend asked me what was wrong...I told her that this is weird, I had a hard time buying anything know darn well it would not fit in a few months... So I ended up hopefully buying my last 26/28 I bought a pair of pajama bottoms and a grey hoodie. It was just kind of funny because here we both are wanting to shop and all that good stuff and neither one of us can!

I still have a TON of stuff I want to do. I really need to stick to my liquid diet this week I do great durning the day just not so great at home. Well no pig outs like I have before I have not done that in awhile what I mean by not great is I am having dinner with my husband. We had Subway all week last week...I know at subway you can still make bad choice but I was good about it...I did keep that cheese but no mayo on my sandwhich I came home and dipped it in mustard...We did go to outback last night...I had steak, grilled shrimp, salad and veggies... I can't gain any weight...they will postpone my surgery and put me on another week of liquid diet...looks like I got some behaving to do this week! I can do it!

8 More Days...WoW!

11 More Days to go

Feb 28, 2007

this week moved fairly fast...I know it is not over but it is already Thursday...I have so much going on and it is getting the best of me! All of these things I wanted to do before surgery...they are not happening! My house is so tore up right now I can't stand it...we decided we were going to tile the kitchen what a mistake! I am getting so fustrated and just want it done so that we can put the stove and the fridge that has been sitting in the foyer back in the Kitchen! I wanted to really clean the house..I mean really clean how can I do that with dust flying everywhere... I think the hardest part is my cousins husband that is helping him/staying at our house and I just want him to go home already! His presence is really stressing me out...I have no idea why but I really don't like him staying with us. He is there during the day when we are at work. When we get home he is gone and comes in when we are sleeping. Im just done I want my privacy back. I want my guest room back...I had just painted it was getting ready to decorate it and bam! He moves in. I feel like scum because I give Dane a hard time about it and I should not...I love my husband more than anything in this world. I think that his cousin this neverending floor job and surgery is just little pieces of the puzzle.
11 more days to go. I have lost 4 pounds on the liquid shake diet thus far and I had my thryroid levels tested after being on synthroid since the first of Dec my levels have came back down to a normal range 2.64 it was way up in the 6 something. I feel really good that I stuck to taking the medication and got the level down! I went and bought my last pair of 26/28 pants. I wanted something to come home from the hospital in something that would be nice clean, make me feel good I would have got a few pairs but I am sure they will have me in a gown while I am there in the hospital. My husbands mother got me a robe for Christmas that I just love so I plan on taking that and using it at the hospital...Well I am rambling guess I will get back to work!

My to do list

Feb 23, 2007

I have so many things that I want to get done before surgery on 3/12/07 not that I think the whole world wants to know but it will be good for me to type them out and get them out of my head!!!

Tile Kitchen Floor- DH and I are working on this now...we are all ready to put down the underlayment and put in the tile...hopefully we can finish it this weekend. ( If you would like to help let me know I will give you my addy)
Spring Clean my house- I don't know how long it will be before I can be as physical as I am now. 
Clean out my Closet- DH and I moved in July and I have a room with about 8-10 boxes of my clothes I need to go through and decide what is staying and what is going. 

Well it may not seem like much but it is...and I have a little under 3 weeks to get it done. I work all day during the week and so does my DH so this is all weekend work...I just want to be able to come home from surgery and concentrate on me and not have to worry about finding clothes that will fit and digging through boxes...Someone asked me what I would be doing with all of my old underwear (lol) I guess I had not thought about it...any suggestions?
