Pre-op diet, 1 week down!

Hi all

Well one week down on the dreaded pre-op diet and it hasn't been too bad really, was tired for a few days at work last week but kept myself busy all weekend. Other half has been working this weekend so I've spring cleaned and today done loads of ironing then done an online shop for Asda too so that saves any temptation.

Hope your all doing well especially those fellow pre-op dieters xxx

You sound like you have sailed through the weekend Nic, after wondering how you would get on. I am getting on the scales tomorrow to see the results of the first week - are you still avoiding them???

Hiya, yeah I have been far too busy lol. I thought I'd get all the big jobs out of the way this weekend so its another thing off my mind (I'm a born worrier!), will have a really busy week at work so next weekend hopefully I can have a bit of a chill and go for a walk with other half or something.

Well done on the 8lb though thats really good

Hiya

Yes still keeping off them lol plus to be honest I didn't get weighed before I went on Tuesday so not sure of the difference between my scales and the ones at the hospital lol

One way of stopping me eh, how are you doing?

 

[alliecat]

I am feeling great, all tiredness gone now. Amazing really considering how little is going in compared to what used to!
I will weigh tomorrow am - I made a point of weighing on my scales on the day I started the pre-op then i will carry on and weigh every Monday - they will be the scales that I see the results on and use for my ticker. For me, I felt that the official hospital weigh ins would be a bit infrequent and I wanted to keep a gauge on my progress week in week out.
Fingers crossed the scales are nice to me tomorrow or after all this effort I will cry!

 

[Nic318]

You will do brilliant don't worry.

I will get weighed on Friday morning before I go to Regency and see what the difference is but think when I've had the op I'll get weighed every few weeks (easier said that done!) will have to get oh to keep hiding them lol xx

 

[alliecat]

God you are good - I couldn't do that, I am a committed scales hopper and not having been on them for a week has been hard!!

 

[shelbell]

lol have been on mine every day! Spent ages on Tuesday after the visit to the Regency working out the best bit of hard floor to place them on where they can stay in the same place without being in the way!

Hiya my good mate

Yes after that week when I had a few wobbles I have been fine (now not saying I will be this time next week lol!)

Finish work on Friday so will need to keep occupied for 4 days before going in lol xxx

 

[staypositive]

You're entitled to a wobble or two - god knows i will probably get a few - just remember though everything WILL be fine - in fact better than fine - you are gonna feel on top of the world in a few weeks time.

If you're at a loose end any time would be good to meet up again before your life change begins.

 

[Nic318]

aaah thanks mate, yeah sure let me know which night is best for you (minus Tuesday) would be great to see you again it's been ages xxx

 

[staypositive]

yeah would be really good to have a catch up and see you before your op.

Got my kids parents evening on thursday but any night other than that suits me chick.

 

[Nic318]

How about Friday? x

 

[staypositive]

Yeah that sounds good - will text you to confirm.

How long before your op will that be?

Can't believe we are countin it in days already!!!!

 

[Nic318]

I know mate, it will be 5 days later at that point so will be good to keep me occupied on Friday night lol.

My counter will be down to single figures tomorrow lol, how cool is that eh ha ha xxx

 

[staypositive]

OH MY GOD !!!

It all just seems surreal - can't imagine how it feels for you!!!

You are gonna come through this and be the happiest you have your entire life - you deserve it chick!!!

So pleased for you

 

[Nic318]

Thanks hun next weekend it will be panic time no doubt, gonna go to Lytham for a walk if the weather is ok xx

 

[staypositive]

sounds like a good idea - try to plan lots of things to keep yourself busy - less time to think = less time to panic.
