1st Post-New Life Journey Has Begun

Posted Today at 04:37 PM by bigbaldeagle

Well I started my LAP-BAND® actual journey this past Sunday the 15th of November when I started my pre-op liquid diet. It has not been as bad as I thought. Smell of food however is tough, so I try to escape that when I can. Yesterday the 19th, I went for my EKG, Chest X-Ray, blood work, urinalisis, visit with respiratory and also internalist for medical clearance for upcoming LAP-BAND® surgery. All went well!!! YEAH!! Today I went and had the EGD done and all is well. So I am a GO for the 1st of December,...

I've got a date!

Surgery date, that is! :) I have my pre-op and dietician consult on Tuesday, January 12th. That is when I start my pre-op diet. {cringe}

The big day is Wednesday, January 27th. That is 68 days away! With Thanksgiving and Christmas in there, time is going to fly by.

I'm quite excited! Now that everything is scheduled, it is truly time to just wait. I feel so relaxed, confident and completely satisfied with my decision. I know I will get nervous a few times between now...

Day Two

TGIF. TGI Friday AND the last day before a week off! It's just a great day all around!

Don't get me wrong. I love my job. I usually even enjoy it. I just love to spend my time with my hubby and family and friends MORE!

So a few things I want to pontificate on today...

1) the whole not drinking while you eat thing. I want to know why this is? Some people say it's because you feel full faster if you drink water while you eat and that means you get less nutrition...

I started my pre-op diet today after two days of last-mealitis and binging. I tried to fit in all of my favorite foods just in case I never get to eat them again. Let's see... I went to two fast food places, Taco Cabana and Jack in the Box. I don't know why I chose Jack in the Box. I never eat there! But I loaded up on tacos, chicken sandwiches, flauta, fajita taco, cake, eggrolls and more. Then last night, I hit the bakery at Market Street for a lemon torte and a fruit tart. I bought an eclair...
