Met with the Doc today

Nov 12, 2009

How funny went for my final consultation today with Dr Chiasson..it was 11:30 and he was running late.  He finally saw me at about 12:30..I instantly told him he better go to sleep early next Tuesday night so he was rested and less stressed.  He laughed and said ok.  He gave me all my prescriptions I will need..pain, nausea (both a pill and suppositories) , heartburn meds too...he said there is a good chance I may be off my Diabetes meds very soon after surgery..from his lips to Gods' ears please.  I got a little more nervous today..but I really believe I WILL BE OK..having fun getting everything ready as I will stay at mom's house, she will be taking care of me..or getting the cattle prod out to make me walk.. Oh I got my before picture taken too ..lol

Ahhh I can hardly wait for this new journey..no regrets..no regrets

Not eating

Nov 10, 2009

Ok they put me on a diet of 1000 calories a day and protein drinks..I am surviving although I feel like the death of food..especially as I am watching TV..That should be a good thing though..we will see...I will make it..loved the fact my mom actually said a great thing today..I told her someone was trying to talk me out of surgery saying you are strong you can do it on your own..my mom said tell them it's your decision and you have made it..I think she finally gets it..love you mom

Pre-op Today

Nov 06, 2009

Well, I had my pre-op today it went pretty well.  I paid the hospital bill fugured that would help me from chickening out..said I could pay the day of surgery but I will have enough to deal with.  Seems each doctor has his own rules about what you can eat and not eat..interesting though..I feel happy with my sleeve decision.   I feel committed to this and do not want to use it as a diet..I Want it to be a life change.

Wow it seems like it is just around the corner..maybe that is better as I will have less time to be so scared.  My mom wanted to cancel Thanksgiving..I keep telling her life has got to go on...I still have to live..noone else has to suffer for me..
