- Sleeved or not sleeved:
- I have had a gastric sleeve.
- Biography:
- I am 34 years old, the proud mother of 3 children (2 Biological and 1 Step) I lost my mom last September and my outlook on life changed.. dramatically. My mom spent her entire adult life taking care of others, never doing anything for herself, or her health. Her last breath, became my first. I need to listen to her lessons, "you need to take care of yourself, or you won't be able to take of others".

Epiphany... (light bulb going off)
by want2bmindblowing on 07-04-2013 at 10:51 PM
So. I am 9 days into my Pre Op diet.I have survived a weekend and a holiday. I am going to do my best to put into words what I have learned over these past 9 days. I thought that the whole point of the pre op diet was to shrink your liver. But quite honestly, I think there is so much more to this. Day 1 of the diet was tough for me, not because of the change of habits, but because the shakes didn't agree with me. I am actually thankful for that, becasue it took the focus off of the change. Day 2
Day 2 of my Pre Op Diet.. (lets try this again)

So after going home and making some "pudding" and trying the chicken soup mix, my Nutritionist and I decided that my body is not tolerating the Optifast. So we are going to try Unjury. Luckily they have some samples of that for me to try, before I buy... I have $230 worth of Optifast that I can't return to the Dr office. So now I have to try and sell it to another patient.
Day 1 of my Pre Op Diet.

So... I got my skim milk nice and cold, put it in my magic bullet with my protein powder and blended for a few seconds (the kids were still sleeping). It smelled delicious! I took one drink and I felt like I swallowed the whole thing. It was so "heavy" in my stomach. I forced the rest of it down. Now I feel so full, too full. It just keeps "repeating", I am so afraid I am going to throw it up. I am not sure how I am going to do these 4 times a day? My sister told me to try it
Big Day, the first of many (I hope)

As I was getting settled into work this morning, I received an email from my Dr's office letting me know that my insurance company has APPROVED my surgery on July 10th. I can't express the emotions I felt as I re-read those words over and over. I haven't allowed myself to totally embrace this whole scenario because I didn't want to get my hopes up, then be let down if the insurance company declined me. So today, when I got that email, all of my built up excitement, anticipation, worry, etc. exploded
