Oh. And I'm a little concerned. Anything with Protein powder added is not sitting very well with me. I had no problem with Protein shakes pre op but now they're all coming right back up.

Have you tried unjury whey Protein? It really dissolves well and my doc recommended it as the best for RNY patients. Maybe that'll go down better? Best wishes to you.

I have not but I may try their sample pack. I bought the Syntrax to start with. Tastes good and dissolves well. Just having trouble with anything cold right now.

I got the chocolate truffle and vanilla bean torte. Also got the unflavored to mix with Jello and stuff.

Yay, I'm glad to have a surgery buddy! We are lucky to have the summer to get accustomed to our new lifestyle. I haven't told anyone at work so it has been hard during these last few teacher workdays to explain why I can't go out to lunch (pre-op diet). Are you on a pre-op diet?

I haven't been given a pre-op diet to follow. I'm impatiently waiting for the hospital to call me for my pre-op appointment. gah!!!! I have shared with quite a few people at work. We are a very small school and faculty is all pretty friendly and close. I've had a few friends say are you sure???? and when I say yes, they ask what they can do to help.

Today was so so so much better for me!

And then I didn't chew my Calcium chewable enough. And that was awful.

Time to sip some Water and take a hot shower and go to bed.

Did not sleep last night. Worst night since I've been home. Out of control cough and my lungs feel so tight. My asthma inhalers did not even help. Don't know if its post nasal drip from my allergies or the start of an upper respiratory infection. Going to put a call in to the surgeons office here shortly. I was planning on going back to work tomorrow but I can't if I can't get any sleep.

      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!!
