Havent Been Here In A While........



Recommended Posts

So, I have been a little distant! why you ask? At first it was just stuff and busy-ness. I am happy to say I have my nurse assesment on monday followed by my nutrition class. I pick up my Optifast that day and start on tues. After that is one more dr's appointment and then surgery on the 26th.

I was all excited to have a pre-holiday feast this weekend, since Iwill be on Optifast through the holidays.My dad and brother may or may not be coming and I wont know until later today. The thing that stinks is that Tuesday I went to get the mail and fell and fractured my big toe in three places and my other toes were injured in the process. So now I cant do much of anything :(And its my birthday and my house is a wreck and I havent been doing much for dinners, thank goodness that my kids are happy with the easy stuff! But I just want a good dinner before I get to watch everyone else enjoy theirs! I am not questioning my decision I just know it will be hard to watch everyone eating on christmas.

Lastly, I am so stinking excited for the surgery to happen and be over with!!!!! I am ready! I am going to start a bag soon so that I can throw things in there when I think about it!!!

there is my update!! Now to start reading all the posts I have missed.

holy moly girlfriend - you are a quarter of a century "young" today - OMG

IMO you don't look a day over 24 :lol:

getting so exciting as time gets closer and closer to WLS - gotta hang in there another 3 weeks :(

it might be a "little" rough over the holidays, stupid fractured toe :angry: , family food all that stuff - but remember why you are doing this, you will be so happy :)

you will find yourself in a better place - healthier, happier - which will make "kid time" even better

take care bud

see you before surgery, so to speak!!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
