Long Time!!!

Wow i have not been on here since my surgery.. It's been a whole year and I am down only 50lbs... But its all my fault.. . I haven't really been following protocol... I do go to the gym but not as often as i should.. I eat much less now and i am basically not able to eat all bad foods.. lol like fried foods, bread, i have trouble with alot of meat...even fish! but chicken is ok and sometimes beef, but pork is a no no and so is steak... One day i had ate a piece of steak, and it got stuck and i c

My Internet Sucks

Im back at school and the internet sucks this semester... anyway... im at a stand still with my weight loss but this week im going to up my gym usage... 15 lbs down since the start of the process, just 9-10lbs down from surgery... it goes up and down everyday.. its kinda frustrating but i know i am not doing and eating everything i should... i mean i don't eat that bad, its still healthy food, its not like im downing burgers and fries or greasy foods, its just hard for my to break the habit of n

Back Now

I been gone for a minute, but im back now, Im finally in the Pureed stage.. so far i have had tuna fish, chili and a hot dog.. This past weekend i got so busy and i wasn't really hungry i forgot to eat.. but today i Kinda made up for it... for lunch today i had tuna fish, and cucumbers in italian dressing... it was so good, but i messed up i didn't wait the full thirty minutes to drink my water... i was just extra thirsty today, serious i have had like 6 bottles of water and i am still thirsty a

1 more day!

:smile2:Now i am 23 hours away from surgery.... This liquid diet thing is not bad at all i haven't even really been hungry.. i didnt even really eat anything today.. Like i had my water, i had one container of SF jello, about 8 ounces of chicken broth with one scoop of Unjury unflavored protein. and i had 1 SF popsicle and one of m 8oz optifast shake for dinner.. and its 1am and i am not even hungry, usually by now if i had regular food i would be starving.. i just really hope to get all my cal

:-( Sad weekend for me!

This weekend was just horrible, My brother had got robbed at gun point, he gave the boys his money and they still shot him... and then the next day My favorite uncle dies... this has just been a bad weekend altogether.... and on top of that i just found out that his funeral is on the day i have my surgery, i wont be able to attend because i already put in the time at my job and i can't reschedule becuz school is bout to start back up and my surgeon wont be able to do the surgery til the 27...

1st day

Ok so today was my first full day on liquids, (oh and in case ya'll didn't know, i don't have to do a liquid diet, i put myself on it.) anyway the optifast shakes and soups is not bad at all.. they are actually tasty... i think i did fine all day but now that it is late at night i am extremely hungry and i should have went straight to sleep after i got off work... my stomach is jumping up and down... i wonder if i am allowed to add protein powder to my shakes cuz i need the extra full feeling at

Normal

Ok so everything is back on track again... Thank God, but he always come through, that's why i love him so much! im having really bad gas pains tonight. Hopefully by the morning they will all be gone... August 20th is creeping around the corner, and fast! I am kinda happy i have to work the night before my sugery, i need something to take my mind off of things... Now get this, i have my pre-op meeting with a different Surgeon since my surgeon doesn't have any available dates for pre-op, but this

uuugggghhhhh

Ok so i'm a little frustrated right now, Just found out today that my pcp went on Maternity Leave now i have to wait til my surgeon office gets back with my doctors office, so they can set up an appointment so i can have my medical clearance. Mind you i still need an appointment for a follow up because i just got out the hospital from gallstones and an UTI infection. My dang surgery is next friday and they don't think they can fit me by that time to clear me... What??? but i called you last week

Surgery date!!!

Guess What everyone, i just went to my first dietician meeting on monday, and i have a surgery date for the 20th. Is anyone else on that date too, i have 3 more pounds to lose, because i just found out on monday after two months of not knowing that i have to lose 2% of my body weight... requirement of my insurance. Now wouldn't it have been smart of the surgeon to tell me that at the first consult.. Thank God i didn't really go on a binge eating frantic, or get that Last Supper Syndrome (even th

next appt.

i have my EKG done tomorrow... i am not sure of what to expect. like i know they are taking a look at my heart and valves. i hope everything looks good... Update: my first dietician meeting was cancelled, and now i have to wait another week.. so mad about that.. but oh well!   I think im kinda getting discouraged here.. I have put on weight in the last two months i think its that i gotta eat everything insight syndrome... Sometimes i wanna cry and just stop eating but i know that wont help...

Dietician Meeting

I finally got my first meeting with the dieticican.. although it is not until the end of july. hopefully i can get all my meeting in a row... even better, hopefully i will only need that one meeting.. even tho i doubt that.... i am really pushing for an August surgery but since i can't really get in to see the dietician i doubt it will happen in August.. better yet before i have to go back to school...:smile2:.. i really didnt want to have to take off from school being as though im paying for it

Fell off

ok so already i have fallen off the band wagon of doing the shakes in the morning... BUT the only thing i can do is GET BACK ON! i am determined not to fail so Lets Go Koren!!!!   Just some self encouragement....

So far so good

ok so i've started drinking my shakes in the morning, i have chose the slim fast shakes but now im thinking i need a protein shake being as though i get hungry after i drink the shakes, but today i really didnt get hungry til about 12pm so that's lunch time, i guess my body is getting used to just having it in my system, i haven't join the gym yet because i ran out of money this weekend but hopefully i can get my brother to give me like $40 so i can join! hopefully, i am still excited about join

Things to do...

Today i am goin to start my protein shakes, i am going to start off with one shake a day preferably in the morning, as i progress i will do one in the morning and than one for dinner at night! well up untill i start my pre-op diet. also i will be joining a gym.. hooray! this gym stays open 24hours 5 days a week, so i can go anytime i feel like it during the week....   Does anyone know of any good tasting shakes? i don't want to start with anything nasty...

Starting Anew

Ok so i decided that i want to start a blog, i think this will kinda calm me down during my journey to be banded...i am an inpatient person sometimes, especially when it comes to wait for something to happen, i just want it done now without all the extra stuff that's involved but i know i have to be physically, and mentally ready for this surgery so it is for the best:rolleyes2:.... N.E.Way i had my pysch evaluation yesterday and it went pretty well. The Doc, thinks that i am ready for the lifes
