One Week And Lovin It.

The end of my first week.and I feel great. My liquid diet could be better but it's only for another three days. I've lost 19 lbs and dropping. I'm walking 30 minus day and working in the yard. I need to remember to drink my water while outside thou. I went to the hospital today for a test for another think I'm working on. The doctor I was with was vary interested in my trip to Mexico. I asked her to send an email to my PCP and let her know I was doing great. I know it's not going to be like

Day Five And I Feel Great!

After waking up this morning to the first day of the rest of my new life. I was thinking of all the stuff I need to do. I have not done any shopping for my food. I need to start a routine for the time I'm home. I'm not going to sit in front on the TV and go walk at the mall. With how good I feel this time is not going to be wasted. But for this morning I need to go shopping and go walk at the mall.

Day 3

I had my leak test this morning which came out good. Then the Doctor came in to my room and pulled my drain tube out (ouch). Then the nurse came in and ripped the tape off my hairy belly to change my badinages. And finely Trish came and took me and another truck driver to the hotel for one more night. Then I get to go home.   This was a experience That I will never forget. It's the start of my new life. A new me which I will be able to play with my grand kids like I want to. And to be a better

This morning after I got my IV meds I though up for the first time. it was interesting. Not much there just a little blood. The nurse looked at it and said it looked ok. I had some crushed ice last night and defiantly felt it. I'm looking foreword for my broth that I get when I move to the hotel.

I Made It To Tijuana

Well I made it. I'm here at the INT hospital in Tijuana Mx. And after a vary FAST ride from the airport. They got me checked in and I'm in room 306. After playing with the TV trying to get an english speaking station Trish came in and told me how to do it. She got me a nice pillow and we talked. She is so nice. I walked past the night nurse who was getting a shoot with a BIG needle ready for someone. I covered my butt as I walked past her and she laughed. Looks like I'm the first one in the morn

I Start My Journey Tomorrow

I leave for Tijuana tomorrow afternoon. As some of you know I had to keep this surgery to myself. My wife and kids didn't want no part of this and if I told them it would have turned really bad. I think a lot of it is that they would be worried about me with the surgery and to top it off going to Mexico to have it done. I hope my family will eventually accept my decision and support me.   This three day diet suck. I don't know if I could have done the ten day or two week diet. I fingered t
