    Hope all went well with your surgery. The gas has been the worst thing so far but its getting better. They are releasing us tomorrow Have a quick recovery and hope to see you around the hospital/Marriott.
  3. I see your surgery is listed as today. Hope all goes well.

    Best wishes for speedy recovery.

Words of encouragement

Well its been a while since my last post. I am doing great since the surgery on march 20th. I still have trouble getting in 100 grams of protein in each day, but i do my best. I am not able to drink any of the shakes.....they make me so sick. So i eat a lot of seafood and moist chicken.

When i started this journey I was 347 lbs. When i got on the scale this morning I was 255 lbs!! It has not been easy. Some of my favorite foods, I can't eat, I have issues getting in 100 grams of

10 more days....am i ready??

by luvinfunkyworm on 03-10-2014 at 05:33 PM
So I have been on the pre-op diet for 6 days. I have lost a total of 14.3 lbs. I still have 10 days of dieting, 3 of which will be liquids only. I am super excited but having doubts at this point.
Am i really doing the right thing? Deep down, I know I am but i am thinking of all the things that could go wrong at home while I am gone. Will my kids be ok? WIll they manage to keep their homework done or any tests that they have to do that week, will they do OK on them or will they worry about

{sigh} stress before surgery

by luvinfunkyworm on 03-08-2014 at 12:07 PM
So today marks 5 days that I have been on the pre-op diet. I have lost a total of 10 pounds so far and still have over a week left so that is good. I am noticing that as my day comes closer, things seem to spiraling elsewhere for me. Work is stressful...almost too stressful. Home life even seems stressful at this point. I have this sense on loneliness that I cant seem to shake. But even worse, let me tell you about last night.....

I had a super stressful day at work. Came home almost

Relief is amazing

by luvinfunkyworm on 03-06-2014 at 08:38 AM
Relief....
I started my pre-op diet 2 days early thinking I would need a few extra days because I am not great at losing weight. I weighed myself before I started and I weighed myself again this morning and I have lost a total of 9.4 pounds!! Maybe I can lose weight and will be ok for my upcoming day The days are going by fast...but not fast enough. I am so ready to get this journey started, and it's so close yet so far away. My emotions are in check...finally. I am no longer angry...maybe

Pre-op diet

by luvinfunkyworm on 03-04-2014 at 01:57 PM
Well today is Day 1 of my pre-op diet. I started a few days early because of damage that I allowed the past 2 months. As soon as I got my date, my wonderful fiance decided that he was going to make sure I got all of my favorite foods. And I ate...I told myself that I was only eating smal amounts, or that if I ate the lighter of my favorites I would be ok. And then yesterday I stepped on the scale. Long story short, I gained 4 pounds since scheduling my surgery. Once again, I felt angry and still
