Fifty pounds gone yay

Well I got to the hospital at about 8:45 pm found the place I needed to be was given a key and told to change and put my things in a locker.      

Alls good now I'm sent down the hall to sit and wait for about 2 mins before a nice nurse comes and gets me to put in a IV , she tells me that they are going to inject me with some dye and how its going to feel.  Did I mention I hate needles lol.

Now I go back sit down for another 5 mins and a tech calls me into a room they shoot in the dye and do the ct scan ok all done. Hmmm in all it took about a half hour we were walking out of the hospital by 9:15.
 
I just hope it goes that quickly for Donalda when she goes in. Oh yeah and they say it takes up to a week for the results to come back to your Dr but they said my doctor could call in and get the results over the phone.
 
I have an appt with the anesthesiologist in the morning at 8:30 at the Vic and a Dr appt at 1:30 really hope my results come back ok.

First week done on Meditrim and I have lost 10 Pounds YAY . Meditrim has'nt been too bad don't really care for one or the other I think there both gross so I just drink it down. Really enjoying my tomatoes and cucumbers with garlic pepper Yum Keeping busy has really helped . whenever I felt hungry I would have a bottle of water or make myself busy. LOL look out week 2 here I come.

Well I managed to get an appt for a CT scan this coming tuesday Dec 14th yea  . Now I just have to stay positive and hope the spot my DR was seeing is just a blood vessel like she originaly thought. Keeping my fingers crossed and praying.

Today was a little easier I kept myself very busy and now I'm just to tired to care. Everyone in my house is coming down with a cold I hope I don't get it. Hmmm will they do the surgery if I have a cold. 

well day three wasnt so bad ,starting to realize the only vegetable's i prefer to eat are cucumbers and tomatoes. Everyday near dinner time I become very resentfull and full of self pity when I am cooking dinner for my family. But I get over it quickly. My husband is being really patient , I'm surprised he is'nt pulling his hair out  by now I have been very difficult.

Day 2 started out not to bad but I got kinda cranky around dinner time. I bounced back quick and made it through without hurting anyone LOL.

Well day one on medtrim didn't go too bad. Had my two cups of vegies for dinner ,  I had made a sauce with tomatoes and vegies and had it over spaghetti squash it was very satisfiying. Gonna have one more shake and then off to bed. Oh yeah I made my second shake of the day with warm water and it tasted like hot choc. Yum

Well tonight I will have my last supper before I start on Medi-trim.  I am a little nervous but I know I can do this so I'm very excited at the same time.  My moods will probably roller coaster from day to day and I have warned my family that I may be a little cranky at time's so beware.  LOL  I am lucky my husband will be here in the evenings to help cook the meals and my kids are all old enough to feed themselves if they are hungry.  My oldest daughter is 24 , My son is 16, and my youngest daughter is 14 and of course theres my dad he lives with us too so I think I will have nothing to worry about.

Well I have'nt had surgery yet but I have met with Dr Hardy and waiting for a surgery date. I figured while I waited I may as well get into the habit of going to the gym. First day back was very invigorating. The hardest part is actually going to the gym. You always seem to find better things to do. Well from now on there will be nothing better than going to the gym and getting fit.
