Tuesday Roll Call
Good evening everyone.
I am 7 days out from surgery and i am having second thoughts. I am so afraid of dying on the table. Is that normal? I'm worried i am getting too much calories in. I'm drinking all 4 of my shakes and i get up to 200 calories of fruits and veggies a day but lately, especially the first 2 days, i have been eating over by 50 calories. I have done better but its soo hard. anyone had this kind of problem.

Hello all,
Wow were does time go? Sorry it has been a few days since I posted.
I had my 6th month follow up only it was a 7th month instead. My weight is going down but oh so SLOW!!!
The dr, told me to, if you can believe this, exercise for shorter periods. I was doing about 2hrs and now I am limited to 1hr instead. Of course I was going about 4 days a week, and now I need to make it 6 days a week.
My labs are looking good!! Need to up the b-12 sub to 2x's a week, but that is minor.
I have an apt with my sleep dr on Thursday. I have started waking up with headaches again and some fatigue during the day. I tried using my sleep apnea machine, but the pressure is sooooo strong, my face swells up and I am in pain the next day. I am hoping they lower the pressure. I want to sleep!!!! I figured my apnea was playing with me again, as I have been waking up in the middle of the night and then staying awake for a couple of hours. UGH!!!
To the person who is having surgery in 7 days, jitters are so normal. I too wondered if I was following the diet correctly and would that hinder my surgery. As long as you are not eating outside of the diet you should be ok.
Remember this is a gift you are giving yourself. You have an exciting new life just waiting for you. Good luck. Come back often. Let us know how you are doing.
