day 2 of liver diet
Oct 23, 2009
THURSDAY OCT. 22, 2009 what a horrible day... had a migraine all day long and craved all the bad stuff... lol don't help it when all i see on TV is fast food commercials... did good and didn't give into the temptation... went to the nutrition and exercise class and lately i noticed whats wrong in America... all the gyms seem to be right across the street from a fast food place... how can we lose weight when we go to the gym we stare at the Mickey D's or the BK as we work out... Not Fair... takes alot of will power...
had to go for all the pre-surgery testing... WOW that was awful... my veins are bad real bad... i think i was at every lab in the hospital trying to get just 4 tubes of blood... 3 1/2 hours later and after being poked by 7 different techs they got it... at least i had wonderful ppl that know i needed this like if my life depended on it... CAUSE IT DOES...
Friday Oct 23, 2009. went to see my PCP today for medical clearance... everything was OK and he gave me the clean bill of health for surgery... 1st a green filter to prevent any blood clot from reaching my heart and lungs will be on Tuesday... scared but i know god is with me and I'll do fine... then in a week its the big day the start of my new life...

liver reducing diet
Oct 20, 2009
tomorrow i start the liver reducing diet... can't believe surgery is only two weeks away now... it's gonna be hard to do this diet again but no matter what i will not fail... i remember doing it with christy for her surgery to show her support and that i struggled the first 4 days or so but after that i was fine... i imagine it will be the same way... tonight is my last real meal before the surgery and i don't know what i want to eat... so many things i enjoy that i wont be able to eat for quite some time but that does not matter, my life and health do... what sux is that Saturday is my friends birthday and she wanted to go to olive garden for b-day dinner and i wont be able to attend... she was cool bout it and she knows and supports my decision to have RnY so that was good, she wants me to be able go get healthy and happy...

surgery date schedule
Oct 14, 2009
October 14 2009... things are moving really fast now... yesterday i got a call from the Dr office to schedule my surgery date... November 4Th 2009... scared of course, happy heck yeah... ready IDK wut life will bring... and i know is now when you turn to faith whatever Lil bit of faith you have whatever you believe in and you ask for guidance,,, you make peace with your friends, family and loved ones.and most of of all you make peace with god and yourself... listen to me preaching,,, that's the pot calling the kettle black... these next 3 weeks will be hard I'll have to go nutrition class,exercise class start a liver reduction diet, have my presurgery testing done visit my PCP for medical clearance.( not too happy bout this one but have a vena cava filter put in) to stop a possible blood clot from reaching my lungs... sounds like so much very overwhelming at times but you never win a race by skipping the gates.... you have to go through all the gates to win and that's what i plan to do WIN ...
Christy you have given me a great life i thank you for that... if anything should happen i want you to remember i did not go down without a fight this one is the fight to live to be happy and to see your smile on the other side... i am so proud of you i see that smile every time you lose more weight you brighten up the room ... together we could make the room so bright ppl would need sunglasses just to come in...lol... to the ones that have told me not to do something so drastic... thank you from the bottom of my heart for your genuine concern i know the risk I'm taking but in the fight of life they are winners and they are losers the only way i will lose is by not doing anything to try to win... i refuse to let life pass me by the way i let it pass and not even try to help myself... there is an old saying that when the going gets tough the tough get going... a wise person once told me that that saying was wrong the true saying was when the going gets tough the tough get help... ain't that the truth we all need a lil help sometime and this is my time to get help... <3 Punn
