November Dates



Recommended Posts

congrats new bro's and sistas, and those who have crossed the line. I'm so thankful for all the experiences being shared and have been following everyone's progress closely.

I'm getting frustrated that my surgery is so far away and that I have to lose so much before it. Its driving me nuts. I'm halfway through my Optifast diet, and have 3 weeks to go. Yes I have lost weight but I keep getting cravings. I have been fighting the cravings with frozen raspberries, but that isnt fish and chips, or pizza. I just know if I do eat the crap my body will rebel like it did last time I gave into cravings....

I'm so looking forward to being on the losing side. I have been cleaning and rearranging my house, buying ideal size clothing, and spoiling my fat cat rotten to keep myself active, but its annoying that I have to wait, and that if I slip up in the next 3 weeks it might not even happen. I'm getting really anxious (which for someone who already has an anxiety disorder is pretty rough).

Not only is all this going on, but the surgeon also said I needed a Mirina put in pre op so that I wouldnt have serious issues with Iron deficiency. so organising that has been annoying too. I have to get an ultrasound on tuesday before insertion on Thursday... adding to the cost and the hassle.

This is all self funded (well funded by a loan) so the mounting costs plus the fact I have to take leave without pay from work is really starting to mount...

Just needed to vent.

Guess this is why my surgeon wants me to have therapy...

I start my 2 day liquid diet tomorrow. Surgery is on Tuesday morning and I have to say' date=' I'm feeling pretty zen about it. Just cleaning up the house today and tomorrow. I'm going to do every piece of laundry I can find so I don't have to worry about it. Post-op meds are ready. Mother and best friend are coming in tomorrow. So far everything is running smoothly. I feel so blessed. Your posts have helped a lot.

Now it's all about getting to the other side and recovery! Bring it!

Any of my November friends who are now post op having any issues with lightheadedness? It is not too horrible. Just not fun and making me a tad nauseas.

Me. I'm very light headed. I think it's because I'm not getting enough Fluid in. I hope you feel better soon.

Well everyone I made it through. Kinda sore but not to bad. Eating pudding type foods already and home. Ya! I'm drinking alot and am actually liking crystal light lemonade. Did not like it before. My husband was such a trooper for me. He stayed in hospital the whole time and slept in a very small recliner and got up and walked with me. He's so supportive .

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
