2012 Surgery Sisters
Greetings!
Hello ladies! So great to have a group for just us women! I don't quite have a surgery date but I meet with the surgeon next week and will have my surgery date before I leave the office! Looks like August! Anyone who is having surgery in August, I have created an August 2012 Surgery Friends group! Look it up and feel free to join!
Anyway, my story isn't much different than everyone else's so I will just keep it short. I hit rock bottom 2 years ago when I had a pregnancy from hell with gestational diabetes and awful preeclampsia. It all ended with my little guy coming far too soon, in the NICU for 3 weeks, and I had a horrible infection from the C-Section that kept me in the hospital longer than expected. I am ready to get healthy and live a normal life!!!
I am required to do a 10 day liquid diet prior to surgery and I will find out more about that on the 26th when I meet with the dietician. They will provide me with a food plan which will help, but I am nervous for the liquid diet. I know I can do it, but I also know it will be very difficult. I'm ready for this. I'm ready to be healthy and turn my life around. I look forward to sharing and receiving advice from all of you!!!
