Ok so now its only 30 days till I get banded. My doctor does not require a pre-op diet. But I have decided to start a version of one any ways. My version will include no sodas, no candy, no or very little bread (might make tortillas). So my plan is to drink mostly liquids during the day, my favorite choice is a whey protein drink, but as my bf is not home I´ll have to cook dinner for the kid and well I decided it would be ok for me to eat dinner. I just don't think I can do an all liquid diet and try and cook a dinner for not even one as the kid often only eats a tiny amount. I´ll just weigh it all and maybe I should take pics of how much I eat as to keep me in line? Think that is a good idea??
I am going to call this my first weigh in well first official one at least and this morning I was 279.1 pounds. I am going to do weigh ins on Mondays since that's what I did today, but after surgery I think I might change it to Thursdays as that will be my operation day.
My weight goals are a bit different than those of you that use the pounds, I will be happy to be in ONDERLAND but I´ll be even more thrilled when I get to 220.2 pounds as that means I´ve just broken the 3 digit kilo barrier, I´ll be 99.9 kilos. Omg I cant wait to see a two digit weight on my scale. But yeah my weight goals will be each 10 kilo mark, thats each 22 pounds.
My doctor finally made that prescription for the blood thinner injection that my surgeon wants me to take before my flight, only took her a bleeping week, and it usually only takes about 1-2 minutes to make prescriptions here as we use mostly electronic prescriptions which I am so thankful for as I hate reading the doctors writing when ever I am working and putting it in the computer (I work at a pharmacy), I swear doctors must have a course at college in how to write so you cant read what they put on it lol
Well best get back to that calculus, my teacher is trying to kill us hahaha I swear, we have an assingment to hand in next week which is a bit long, and then he added 10 old exam questions to do for this wednesday plus 78 problems from the book well those I can devide to two weeks but still a shit load of stuff to do.
So glad you are so close to your Date with the Band!....we will be banded together, virtually. My pre-op allows 2 meals (thank God!) but they are small and NO carbs. 2 cups greens (except iceberg lettuce as that won't clear your system), lite dressing, 1/2 c cooked veggie, 3 oz lean meat or protein like an egg. Plus I have to drink 3 protein shakes/day. Be careful with dark leafy greens on a blood thinner, though...you may want to ask your doc about that.
ReplyDeleteGood Luck!!!
ok thanks, I have to admit though that I hardly eat any veggies :( never have been able to, I still keep trying but I think I am a lost case. My poor mum tried getting me to eat them ever since I was a baby but I´d just spit them out :(
DeleteAbout the blood thinner, I think I´ll be ok as I only have to have one shot before the flight, but it's good to know about the dark greens :) we are so going to rock this band :D
Only 26 days until our advanture begins :)
ReplyDeletewoop woop :D
DeleteI didn't have a pre-op diet either...just reasonable and no big meal the night before surgery. I went through a "last supper" phase though...I advise you to try to avoid THAT at all cost. :)
ReplyDeletehahaha that's exactly what I am trying to avoid. I told myself I´d not eat junk food or any candy till my operation. I know I´m not perfect, but I hope I make it without failing to much. I must admit my head started counting foods I wanted to have for the last time lol kinda pathetic of me I know but hey that's life :)
