Day one of the presurgery diet.  I've had a few hungry moments.  But a nap helped with that, I do have a head ache for most of the aftenoon. and there was the moment at lunch when I considered mugging my roomate for her pizza.    But I did hold strong.
 
So now I\m done with supper and having a cup of herb tea.  I have been looking at the celery with longing though   sigh I guess I will just have to resign myself to a few weeks with no crunching.

I did mine on tuesday and it wasn't that bad you'll have bloodwork, ECG, chest xray, weight checked, blood pressure checked. I know its tempting lol but leave the pillow at home and go walk around. Between the appointments I slipped over to Garrett to see Nooshin for a few mins.
 
I found meeting with RN reassuring but I met with internist I discovered how much say he has on whether to go ahead or delay you. I had a hairy moment but I am all a go.

AAh yes the very delish liqiuds LOL kidding it's really not so bad actually I am drinking my last protein shake for day right now.

Dr Ali Zentner I found her to be real nice friendly quite different from other Drs Ive met before.   

just a reminder that there is a meeting on Saturday Feb 4 (tomorrow)
10 am
Langley Hospital Conference room #3
See you all there!!

If you have not been ,please let us know you are coming... it can be a bit of a struggle to find the room if you dont knwo where it is..

One of us will be happy to guide you in

I just got called from Richmond hospital, they have scheduled my hospital appts for March 6! She told me I need to be there for about 4 hours! Maybe I should bring a pillow....I guess it is so long because I have to have all of the tests. Internist first, Nurse scond and Anasthesiologist last.
 
I get to start my liquid yummy's on March 11, Nooshin will be planning that with me on the 24th of this month. I already have my appointments booked for my post op weigh ins....they don't waste anytime do they?? LOL

It feels so great to be moving right along......I can't wait until the day finally arrives! It is so nice that most of you have the same doctor and nutritionist.....I just say a name and you know who I mean! hahahaha

I have to meet with Dr.Zentner once more on March 7th as she is away for this whole month.

Have a great week everyone!!
