    Hiya Jillian! Glad to hear you are doing better. I'm doing pretty well. Sore and tired, but other than that, lol...can't really complain. I mean it's more or less what I expected. I bet that was a scary feeling with your BP! Glad you were able to get taken off your meds and that you are feeling better. I'm aiming to go back to work on Monday, so fingers crossed! =)

    I pretty much skipped the pureed foods also, because I couldn't eat anything and was just feeling weaker and weaker. Have been eating very soft foods and it's helped a lot. Getting a little more calories and energy. Can't start working out until next week, but I walk, slowly, for 2 minutes 4-5 days a week. I'm eating a lot of soups, cottage cheeses, string cheese, protein shakes, sf jello, eggs, beans, that sort of stuff. The only issues I've had are with the weakness and no energy. I started back to work Monday and they're allowing me to go home at noon and nap till 1:15 or 1:30, however long is needed. I have come back refreshed, so it's helping. I'm making some turkey and mashed potatoes for dinner. It's very soft turkey-comes frozen in like a meatloaf pan.

Sleeved or not sleeved:
I have had a gastric sleeve.
Biography:
I have had a weight problem for the past 16 years or so. I never wanted to have surgery because I really felt like if I just tried a little harder and did a little bit more, I could do it myself. Well, 150 lbs later, here I am and am now gearing up for a big change. I am hopeful and excited and just trying to do my research and work beforehand to make this experience as positive as it can be!

Surgery In Two Weeks....WOW.

by Ji_ll_ian on 08-15-2013 at 11:34 AM
So yesterday I received my surgery date. I was cool with it being 4-6 weeks out, so I almost had a panic attack when they scheduled it for Aug. 29th. TWO WEEKS. AAAAH! I am freaking out. I think I am still in a little bit of shock. This whole process has gone by so quickly. My very first Kaiser class, what I call the 2 hour "Do you really want to do this" class, was June 6th. 3 classes, multiple appointments and testing, and less than 3 months later and I have lost the weight my Dr. asked

Sigh...why am I sabotaging myself?

by Ji_ll_ian on 07-25-2013 at 12:35 PM
I need someone to come slap me in the head. I have been trying to analyze my behavior this week and I just don't know what the heck is wrong with me. I met with my surgeon July 1st. He gave me 16 lbs to lose before my psych eval and pre-op tests and 21 lbs to lose before my surgery is scheduled. I had already been doing water aerobics every night and eating well, so I just kept doing that. 15 days later, I was down 15.2 lbs. No starving, no crash dieting, just regular old exercise and good eating.

Getting Over Myself Is Easier Than I Thought It Would Be!

by Ji_ll_ian on 06-27-2013 at 12:16 PM
So Wow... all of this time I have been too embarrassed, too self-conscious to do water aerobics. Why? Because I didn't want anyone to see me in a swim suit. It is really sad, as now that I have done it, I see that it isn't such a big deal at all. There are quite a few WLS people in my class, and nobody (well, except the one ripped lady with the knee injury) looks that great in a bathing suit. And nobody CARES what I look like, except for ME. I put off something that can improve my health for so
