Passing on the Fill

I've thought it over and I'm going to pass on the fill this time.   I've lost 3 pounds since surgery and my clothes fell great. I want to feel better about what I have inside of me. I want to wait another month or so.   I meet with Dr. Brunson on the 23rd and I'm sure we'll talk about it again.   I'm feeling great. No pain on my side.   I do find that I can eat more then I thought I would be able to. I need to rememeber to eat the protein portion of the food first.   We had chicken tac

22 Days Out (208#)

Well I had a scare there for a bit. On the 28th I lifted a watermelon and I pulled some muscels. On Monday of this week I felt really bad. It hurt to do just about anything that involved my left side. I took some meds. Lortab and I felt better while sleeping and yesterday I felt better then I had in a few days. It's even better today. NO MORE LIFTING FOR A LONG TIME!!!!!!   The boys have been helping me lift or bend over to pick up things. The girs too.   I'm still at the same weight. I

1st post Doc. Visit

207# My scale is off my 3 #'s :omg: But all is well. He said that I can swim and continue w/the way I'm eating. Need to make an appointment w/Radiology for my first fill in about 2 weeks. But if I'm doing well enough I can cancel it. I know that I'm full faster now but I don't know how I'll be in 2 weeks. Bruce is concernded that me might lose his job because of a conflict w/the new department manager. If he loses his job where will that leave me w/this new tool?

Day 14

Well I'm not having those pains anymore. Well I haven't since the weekend. I'm back onto solid food and all is well. Sunday I took a nap around 4:30 and didn't get up till 7:30 the next morning when DH asked me to get up to make sure I was ok. I was fine. Monday was sooooooooo hot. Today is better but it's muggy. I've had a egg breakfast burrito. I tossed half the tortillia. I didn't like the way it tasted. I used immitation egg beaters. It wasn't to bad. Well it's 12:40 and I'm getting h

8 days out

OMG; this morning at 4:30 am I awoke in a sweat & a bad tmmy ache. I got up and took some tumms and felt better instantly. But I found that I was very pale and very wet. I've called the nurse & she needs to speak to the doctor first. I'm doing half protein and mushy food. I started out w/yogurt 3 days ago (good), black beens w/cheese, fishsticks & taquettos (2 ea.), and mashed potatos last night. Oh ya somewhere int here I've had cottege cheese w/pineapple. I think I'm doing well

5 days Banded

I'm sore that true. By port incision is the sorest. I can tell that I still have gas, my tummy is extended.   I did have a BM today though.   I also had yogurt. It was good to have something other then jello, protein or water. I've also had about 15 fish crackers through out the day.   I'm going to the movies w/Steph and her kids to get away. My kids have been just bored and bothering each other and I need out and DH sees this. He's the one that called her for me.   Ok it's fucken hot an

Day 8 - Liquid Diet

Two days ago Mom the kids and I went to Grandma's house. Ty locked the keys in the van. Bruce didn't come till close to 8 to get the keys out. Mom and I spent 4 hours working on Grandma's room which was a good thing but I was soooooooo hungry and so was everyone else.   We went to JB and I got everyone food and sat there w/my diet soda. I turend my head but the food smelt so good. I was really hoping that one of the kids wouldn't finish their food. While waiting I had 4 fries. Kira was the one

4th day

Well yesterday was alot better. I had a mild headache that Tylonel took care of.   DH took me to a gathering but we didn't stay long cause I wasn't comfortable w/all the food and I hadn't had a protein drink since morning and the broth I had at Souplantation was starting to wear off.   We came home but then went out to get JELLOOOOOOO for me and other stuff.   We dropped the kids off around 4:30 yesterday at friends houses and its odd to have the house to ourselfs---SO QUITE   This morni

Day 2 of Liquid Diet

I did ok at the game. I saw the food but didn't really want it. We went as a family to Souplantation after and I had broths. It was ok.   I only had one protein drink yesterday before the game and my tummy only grummbled onece.   I had one more before the nights end.   Today; I did a vanilla protein and made one of each for later in the day.   I tried the one I made and it was ok but I like it better w/ice. It will do on those times when I need to leave and have one on the go.   I di

Day 1

I woke up around 10ish. DH told me that I needed to take the DSs to the game since his throat hurt. I really was hoping that my first day would be spent at home not seeing or smelling any food.   I drank the Joe Robb's protein drink and it was ok. I thought it would have that metal taste that I remember from Optifast but it didn't. I added ice and had to chew at least half of it.   I was upset at meself this morning cause I didn't get the kitchen done the way I wanted to. It's still a mess a

Getting Ready

:peep:I'm scared. I'm not sure if I'll be able to do this for 10 days. It was easy before when there was no kids but now that there are 4 of them in the house I hope I can do it. I'm finding that I'm staying up longer each night. Getting up around 9 or 10 in the morning. Thank goodness it's summer break now. I still have a sore throat and I don't know what I'm going to do w/the pain. Can't take anything after Sunday. I'm looking into homeopathic though. I still have my kit. The other thing I
