Tilly Kaye

Hello, I'm in McFarland (Madison). Had my first consult July 2nd (Dr. Campos at UW). In the middle of the classes now (@Newbie - they are with Tammy and Steve - the dept. PA and Scott - the psychologist. Covering all sorts of interesting stuff). Hopefully all will be submitted by the end of the month with surgery in October!
fyi - if you see me in support group my name is Corie. Tilly Kaye is just my "handle".

Had my 6 month appointment today. Protein levels are really low. Not really surprised by that. I haven't been doing my shakes, so I need to get back to that. Everything else looked good - which was a relief. I'm not losing a great deal, but I think I'm losing inches. I wish I would have measured myself before my surgery so I'd know exactly how much, but my clothes are definitely fitting differently. I'm down 5 pants sizes! I feel fantastic and think I look pretty darn good. Still a ways to go, but feeling really inspired. Definitely need to start exercising more and add strength training. I'm getting there. yay!

Waking up in the hospital today after surgery yesterday. All is going well. Definitely some pain and my neck is stiff. Wasn't able to sleep more than and hour or two at a time but all and all it went well.

I'm at day 6, too and I'm not going to lie - it's tough. I haven't cheated but it hasn't been fun. broth isn't bad. You can add seasoning and spices Get wonton Soup and just drink the broth. Definitely drink lots of Water. I really think that after this puréed food sounds fantastic! Who would have thought. Best of luck to you and know we're all in the same boat!

Spent yesterday going through the final preop appointments. Met with the PA, nutritionist, hospital learning center and had labs. Today starts the 2-week liquid diet. This is getting real.
