Tomorrows big
tomorrow i meet with my nutritionist. i am trying everything i can do to be able to be scheduled for the surgery when i meet my dr on the 20th. today i was reading success stories about this kind of surgery and they also talked about things the drs require before surgery so i am taking those and starting now. for instance, i start off with a special k protein meal bar, snack-apple, lunch is a slim quick choc shake, snack, dinner a lean cuisine pizza. some things will change daily but the shakes and morning bars are pretty permanent before the surgery.
i can't remember if i told you that i broke my two little toes about a week ago. after seeing the specialist i left with just a wrap on it. it was so swollen i couldn't fit it in my shoes so today i went and asked for a post op shoe so i didn't have to walk with no support in socks in the cold. so i got one today and i am walking on a cloud. feels good to have the courage to ask for things i need (i usually don't).
i have nate tonight, kjeras son, and he is being soooo good. he is playing with my kindle fire. i got my three regular grand kids together tonight and told them that there was a new rule at nanas. they have to wash their hands when they play with the tablets. not bad, but after seeing how bad they were when i got them back last they were covered with i don't know what.
well, my bird is sitting on my wrist pecking at me so i have to go give some one-on-one time....huggggggs to all

You are having your stomach done to lose weight? Good for you! I hope that we can hear all about it. What is your weight now, if it is not a secret, and what is your weight goal? Are you going to use SparkPeople.com after the surgery? It may help to use it now to get into exercise routines and such. Great support there. There is a group for weight-loss surgery there as well. Hugs and more. Neesie
Yes it is called a Duodenal Switch if you want to look it up. I finally have a penciled in surgery date of April 20. my current weight is 320 now my goal is 150 I haven\'t heard of SparkPeople.com. I will have to look into it
