About Me

  • Gender
    Female
  1. I will pray for you and your son. I also received a devastating diagnosis for my 17 year old sona month and half after my surgery. He was diagnosed with vascular Ehler danlo syndrome. He is at risk for brain aneurysm cardiac artery dissection and sudden death. He wasmy biggest supporter going into this. It too is breaking my heart to learn he is so sick. Foods is no longer a comfort for me. I've been too stressed to eat properly. I know we have to keep our mind focused and just pray and have faith that at least they caught this and take it day by day.
  2. I have 5 kids ages 17-11-8-3 and 2. My oldest 3 boys were well aware what I was doing they were my biggest supporters. My 11 year old even stuck up for me when other family members tried to talk me out of it. They knew mommy was doing this to be healthy and to live a long full active life with them. I have always been a big pusher of a healthy lifestyle with them and honest about weight because I never wanted them to be in my shoes. My 3 year old knows mommy had surgery and that mommy is getting skinny she see it and will point it out. She just knows I am exercising and see me do it. My 2 year old was too little but understood mommy had boo boo at first and I needed to be careful. She gets excited to come to the gym with me and see people exercise. It is good for them to see all the healthy lifestyle changes that come with it.

    Anyone having surgery in Oct ?

    I'm 8 days post op I was progressed to full liquids. I lost 14 lb since surgery. I know it's completley irrational i am worried about the calories I'm taking in from full liquids. I've tried a yogurt cream of wheat and butternut squash soup as that is allowed. In my head I don't want to eat them because I'm afraid I won't lose weight. It's crazy cause I know I need new nutrition. It doesn't help that I have no appetite
