Night before Surgery

HI! I managed to actually get the laptop fully charged for me to write down whats been going on since Thursday. Lets get down to it.

I had my dietician appointment on Friday. Ashely (my dietician) sat with me and basically explained to me once more what the menu will be for me after surgery. So basically, you know the caps that come with the Nyquil bottle or any cough medicine? I will be eating out of that cup. Ashely states it's equivelent to 1 ounce which I will have to drink from for the next two weeks. After two weeks I move onto smooshy foods, baby foods, puree foods. Im fine with it. This liquid diet for the past week was okay, I got used to it diarrhea and all. Im thinking that me getting used to this liquid diet this week benefitted me for the weeks to come, I'll  be used to it, it wont be like it was dropped on me as a surprise.

I had my preadmission testing right after my dietician appointment. They took blood, urine, my weight and I met with the anesthesiologist. Basic questions, am I allergic to anything, how do I do under anestheia, etc. This is me, my night before surgery. If and Im praying that I will see a significant change in my weight, I will continue to post a picture library as well to go along with my posts. Trust and believe that it was very hard for me to put that tank top on let alone wear white shorts. I NEVER WEAR either one of them. Im usually in some sort of dark appearal of the sort. You know to hide the love handles and love pockets (cellulite) I have througout my body.

August 5th, 210 pounds

My Saturday was pretty quiet, didnt really do much. Did some chores around the house. You know a housewives chores are never done. Sunday was pretty much the same. I did laundry and made jewlery the majority of the morning-mid afternoon. I made 4 necklaces and tried my hand at a memory wire bracelet. I dont think they came out bad. I'll eventually will post jewlery pictures once I feel more confident in my work.

Im pretty sure your wondering what my family says about this now that the surgery is a day away. Welp, I still have not told my daughters nor will I tell them. They are so wrapped up in their own world, I dont fit in it. I dont think I ever will at this moment in time. I fought with one of my twins last night. She seems to think that being 19 gives her the right to stay out all night and not come home if she doesnt want to. She doesnt seem to think either to notify anyone of her whereabouts. So of course me being the "overprotected stalker mom" went off on her. Needless to say, shes not speaking to me today. My other twin went out. She asked about my hospital stay but that was about it. Shes in her own world as well. My oldest, I asked her last week if she would take me to the hospital and I didnt get a reply until this morning. Actually it wasnt a reply it was more "hey do you still need a ride to the hospital tomorrow". So since her delay in replying to me last week I found alternative solutions. My husband will be taking me and dropping me off. He cant take the time off from work. Whatever. My mom will be with me and then I will have arrange to have her picked up from the hospital once my surgery is over and Im in a patient room. My mom has a pace maker so I dont want her upset in any way. Plus she doesnt support my decision in having this surgery done. I just know that I dont want to burden anyone. Like I said, I'm a loner and pretty much used to being alone and doing things alone. All I know is that only one person said "I love you" and that was my one twin. What a way to die (if I die, one has no guarantee in life). So there ya have it pertaining to my loving supporative family. :(

One of my besties Rita phoned me, which was nice of her. Checking up on me, making sure Im ready for this. My niece also phoned me with the same questions. Good conversation always helps my lonely soul. Its good to laugh, they say it burns calories! lol.

My stay at the hospital will be 2-3 days. So this will definitely be my last post.

C'ya on Wednesday! (God willing)
