Surgery Count Down

Tuesday, March 7, 2017

okay so I suck at updating timely...

Eval went well... The social worker was nice though late and I was on edge. She expressed the need for me to get back into counseling. I know this and it is like number 4 on my to do list.  Overall though I was cleared that day!

Move on to Feb. 7! Took an extra hour to get there but I made it to my surgeons office. We had a 5 minute discussion and he gave me a date!!! I will be having gastric bypass April 5, 2017 as long as I get approval. I was signed up for a March 7th pre op class to take as my last NUT appointment and also to start preparing.

Today was the March 7 appointment! It went by quickly. Liquid stage is sounding a bit scary but anything to get rid of my diabetes ;or at least reduce my need for insulin.

food has become more about needing it already rather than wanting it.Then  have days like today and I feel like I have taken so many steps backwards. We were told today to make a positive out of our feelings of deprivation. I am not choosing to look at it that way. Instead I am thinking of it as 20-30 years more life, a healthier me, a more energetic and happy me. Heres hoping I can stick with that... no gaining now!Just losing!
