Cant wait for a hot bubble bath. In other news today was the first day i feel like i have been "sleeved" and had a good day. I did not feel hungry all day. I had my shake ( at first i was concerned i could drink the whole 8 oz because so many write about having such a hard time getting them down) then i made myself some mashed potatoes for lunch had about 4 spoon fulls and was satisfied, then later in the day i boiled 2 eggs and made a little egg salad but could only eat 2 spoonfulls ...

So yesterday was really the first day I had to think about what and how I was going to get my protein and liquids in .

I eventually drank the rest of the protein shake and felt so good I wondered what would happen if I had something other than liquid I had a pudding and a jello ...

The last day at the hotel the Dr came took out my tube gave me my perscriptions which Dulcey went and got for us. Then Henry showed up and as you can imagine he is ver y personable, funny full of energy and very passionae about what he does. He drove us to the hotel which was very nice. Then he introduced us to Alma the nurse who takes care of you at the hotel. Also his cousin and Dulcey and we all had an early dinner together. If you can call broth dinner...lol. It was nice to sit with all of them ...

First let me back up to travel day. We left our house at 9am for the ten hour drive. We went straight to the ramada and I have to say if you are taking a companion it's a great place to stay it had a fitness gym, cocktail lounge, restaurant little store there was a fridge and micro in room none of these things could I use but if you have a friend it was nice. My husband enjoyed the complimentary breakfast which had a waffle maker fruit cereal etc
Since we drove to San Diego we met eddy ...
