Today is the last day of my full liquid diet and I start 1 week of Clear Liquids prior to surgery on the 14th. I go for all of my preop testing tomorrow morning so I'm excited to be getting close. I lost 8.8 lbs since last Wednesday by gained a couple back today so that was extremely discouraging. But I'm sure ups and downs are going to happen!

My surgery is May 15th. Yikes! This is my second. I had a lap band in 2011 that had to be removed 7 months later, so I'm nervous and excited.

Jess, I will be with you on that day but I am so busy that I barely have time to think about it. Fire at mom's place in while she is on vacation in Arizona and a new job for my husband where I already work part time, prep for an intimate talk with about 3, 000 high school students, speak on stage to the said students, arrange to get new floors installed, plant bulbs. prep for post op etc... this is just a sample. My center doesn't have me on the liquid but I do it because of the convenience so find something to keep you busy but make sure you don't let the gremlins roar, I find that the shakes actually help. I call them gremlins, there is a technical name but i don't know how to spell it.

i have not gone through it yet but, i plan to make popsicle with the clear Isopure, its a bit pricey at about $4 a bottle but I think its still worthy for the clear days. I tried a batch and my only problem is to keep hubby from them, Just joking, after the operation he wont even think about it. He is a little afraid something will go wrong.

      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!!
