November 2013 Surgeries

The surgeon said it was due to a clerical error they only allowed band time to the first two patients but they were bypassers I'm his only patient tomorrow so should get done as soon as he's in which is 3-4pm it's one of those things :)
 
Oh right, well thats a pain in the butt!

At least you know it'll definitely be your turn tomorrow and he can spend all of his time on you :)

How are you not asleep? Lol after the boredom I would have tucked myself in and snoozed looooong ago :p
 
Yeah ok, just feels wrong eating again like I'm undoing the good I had done. Not eating anywhere near what I would have. Now trying to reorganise work, child care etc. Guess I will come out of hospital on the 20th just in time to have all 3 kids home for 2 weeks. (Step daughter is down for Christmas) should all work out in the end but work won't be happy. Holidays are our busiest time of year. They had us all working excess hours if we wanted them or not! Sounds like you have done the right thing eating smaller amounts. Have you put protein powder or marvel powder in anything to increase your protein?
 
Oh god yeah work :/ Not alot you can do about it though? Can they refuse your time off? At least you'll have lots of little helpers at home to treat you like a queen :) No cooking, No driving. Tea handed to you whilst you lay back and relax.. hehe

It says in my paperwork not to have protein powders so ive not been having them. Im hardly having anything of anything if im honest but on the upside im feeling better not eating much at all than trying to squeeze something in!
 
I'll be taking it as sick. Mr Somers has said he will write to them saying it is a medical necessity if indeed him to. Yeah they are all excited about helping dad cook Xmas dinner. They are 4,11,14 should be fun to listen to! I think British dieticians like people to get natural protein from food and not become reliant on protein shakes as its then a diet. However in the early days we need protein to heal and when it's hard to get much in there is an augment for short term use over those first 3-5 weeks. I'm going to but that's the nurse in me. Marvel milk powder is supposed to be similar at much less cost couple of scoops in with your milk will increase the protein your getting in. X right bed for me night. X
 
I am second on the list guys. Just seen the anaesthetist and have seen my surgeon arrive (very sexy indeed).

Nicola I will text you in a bit.
 
Good luck xx
 
Well, I've just got home from going to the WLS seminar. I meet the criteria for surgery! I initially wanted a band, but now I'm torn between the sleeve or a band. So happy that I meet the criteria! I nearly cried and hugged the dietician I spoke to!!

Hi Kirsty, think very carefully about the band, whilst it works very well for some the bottom line is it isn't forever and at some point it has to come out.. In the end you need to do your own research and make a discussion that best suits you. Good luck. X
 
They said around 5pm I slept ok but it was so warm and my room is 3ft away from the nurses station I've had a kip this morning :)
 
Sadly my doc isn't dishy lol will update when I can xx
