  8. 8 Days Left! Im not feeling super awesome. Kind of concerned that if I get this cold that everyone at work is spreading that they will reschedule me. I am on top of my vitamins so lets hope this achiness and runny nose is allergies :/

  9. It's weird. Other sleeve patients don't seem to want to hear the I've had it as easy as I had it. No vomiting, minimum nausea, able to do self-care: clothe myself, I get off the pot myself, in and out of the shower myself, make my own meals myself. It's almost like it's a badge of honor to have had some sort of complication or malaise after surgery. No wonder the nurses made the comment like they did. No wonder they were so impressed and so surprised I was getting out of bed and walking without prodding and prompting. Smh

      You know what?!? I already thought of that yesterday. I honestly wish I would have done that last week. Pretty sure that its just allergies and maybe a little bit of nerves too!

  12. Tomorrow is 3 weeks Post op and I am a little discouraged at how slow the weight is coming off as I had a horrible start to all this?

      I know you have had it rough. Dont get discouraged. Just remember each day is one more step closer to your goal. Keep reminding yourself that you didnt gain weight overnight even though it seemed like you did. Some people hit the bumps later on down the road and it seems that you are just hitting them all in the beginning. Hugs! I hope you can pick yourself up over this next week and keep on truckin!

      This is s journey. There will be bumps in the road. The key is to get right back on track. Dont get discouraged or beat yourself up because thats how we give up on ourselves and lose motivation. Remember we are human. We fall down and we get back up. Keep it moving girly. You got this!
