surbrookk's Journal, 05 August 2018

Tomorrow’s my surgery day. I’ve prepared for this! Once I leave the hospital I begin several different phases of eating.... this surgery isn’t just about having a smaller “pouch” to told food. I have to eat right, too! I’ve taken nutrition classes along the way that not only prepare me to eat a set limit, and with what frequency I need to eat- but, also healthy foods and meals. I have protein, carb and fat goals to try and achieve each day. This is not the easy way and I wouldn’t have pursued it, if other things I had done (long term) had worked for me. I’m ready. I’m prepared! And, I’m thankful for all the support I’ve had along the way!!! I look forward to seeing healthy recipes posted, on FatSecret, so I can have an Arsenal of healthy things to choose from, when I’m back to eating real food!!!

August 7 is my last visit to the surgeon for my kidney stone. Third times a charm. See you on the gurney my friend. There are a lot of armchair quarterbacks out there, trying to tell you what to do. Family, friends, people who really care. The curtain is whisked back, and you are rolling. Their doubts, worries and last minute advice are echoes down the hall. This is your journey. Your life. Good Luck !

I had bariatric surgery 14 years ago and had very good results. I just didn’t keep up with the changes needed to get ALL the excess weight off. Kept 100 off... now I am working on the last 30 something lbs. You have my prayers and full support!

Thank you all for the encouragement!! Things went well!! Only things I’m struggling with- getting all my water in... I can get 5 to 6 cups in and my esophagus spasms, then let’s air out, when I eat.
