Banding on Saturday starting to feel nervous ok really nervous



Recommended Posts

I've been a bit rushed through the whole process like go in to the surgery center and got some tests done then they call me up on Tuesday and want to do my surgery on Saturday... Soo I get all stressed trying to get the funds together then having to ask my mother in law to co sign on a loan was the most akward nightmare ever.. Now trying to clean house get ready buy everything I need and chill a bit has not been easy! My best friend trying to talk me out of it but my husband is super supportive while my real family mom etc know nothing of my plans so it's like trying to hide some elephant under the rug even.. Oh well it will be done! I'm excited and scared..

that's not very supportive of him he could have at least ate it at Carl's Jr or some where away from you...My husband has been very supportive and doesnt bring food like that home so i wont be tempted to cheat if he does go to CJ's he gets me a low carb burger at least he he.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
