I AM SLEEVED

Made to the other side- Thank God, it was by His grace!

Surgery went off without a hitch . Just managing the pain, trying to prevent nausea. Pain is at a minimum, nausea too with Meds. All is well, can hardly talk for falling asleep. Will ck in again soon when I can stay awake ;-) . Bless you all.

I made it though my surgery without any problems. Glory to God!!!!!!! I thank God for my Morphine pump. I walked 3 times yesterday and once this morning. Trying to get use to the liquids. So far so good. @Savedby grace ----- I'm so glad you made it through as well. Thanks for all your support guys!!!!

You guys doing better?

It was a difficult night. I walked from the couch to the bed just trying to get comfortable. I was missing my Morphine

pump ;-). I'm up this morning making a chart on my medication administration times as well as eating schedules. I am determined to succeed. I pray that everyone is doing well this morning.

      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!!
