Well I have to find a way to get the last NUT appt in before March 5th to even think of my ideal date... but it isn't a completely out there idea! Here's to figuring it all out!
-
Is it even possible to get a date without having finished all steps? I am so worried I have my hopes up and next week they will be crushed... guess I'll ask tomorrow at the orientation.

Start my 2 week pre-op on THursday

Heading back out on the road for work. First work trips since the surgery in September. I have to admit, I am looking forward to people's reactions when they see me! :-)

How exciting! You will have to tell us what they say. I leave Saturday for 8 days, for a conference. I'm somewhat nervous about it because I'm used to cooking my own food and having control over everything by weighing and measuring it. I will definitely make healthy choices and make sure I walk 10,000+ steps a day. I've got to keep my hands away from the sweets and make sure I drink a protein shake every day. It's going to be challenging but I'm up for the challenge.

One week down on my pre-op diet and already my weight loss has stalled. Not sure if that's normal or not.

The push to onederland begins again. I'm doing the Tony Garza six week fat loss challenge. If I lose 20 pounds, it's free. If I fall short, it's $350. I'm two years out, and I need a new challenge.

Instant Pot's sales went way up over the last 24 hours! I should totally get a cut.

59# down today. ilostwhat.com says that's the same as 640 Oreos. LOL. Thanksgiving with my family will be way different this year!

Hoping everyone has a great week with their families and safe travels for all.

I missed it yesterday, but yesterday was my 15 months post-op date. I've lost 200 pounds since surgery and 263 overall. Still baffles me!

Full liquids isn't so bad. I'm lovin' tomato soup right now *-*

I have my surgery date Dec 8 2016. Super excited. Did anyone have to be out of work past 2 weeks?
-
Today is my first day back to work. 15 days post op. I was very cranky when I got to work this morning, but mainly because I had so much work waiting for me. I'm a little tired today and I actually rested for about 15 mins during my lunch. For the most part, I've done pretty well. I think getting back to my daily routine is really going to help. With my job, I'm up-and-down about 50% of the time.

reached half of my weight loss goal today (51 pounds lost) . Burn baby Burn.

I'm doing good with my fluids (can drink almost normal sips) but not so good with protein. Sending the SO to get something else I can try for protein. The protein shakes aren't cutting it - and Atkins LIft (my backup plan) is nasty!

Tricare Prime - South. Approved in 1 day!

I should've gone to a different school.......one I could be proud of on game days.

Now I wait... 2nd dietician appointment isn't until 10/25... tick tock... tick tock.

After losing a total of 266 I have finally been referred to a neurosurgeon. When I got that referral from the spine surgeon I cried. I may finally have surgery which will allow me to once again walk, dance and do all the things I use to do over 26 years ago.

I'm torn between VSG or RNY?

Well... met with Dr. July, she doesn't think my esphogeal issues combined with my low BMI will be enough to get approval through my insurance. I had been fasting so I had my blood drawn to check my cholesterol and if that doesn't come back as "high" then we try a sleep study, but I don't snore... and I think I sleep fairly well. I am not feeling so good about getting approved. Ugh...

Very frustrated with the fact that I weigh the same as others and am the same height and I am not wearing the size 16 & 18 that they are wearing. I am not even close to that size yet. Why are our bodies so different and when will I be out of the X's ?
