I had my pre-op appointment weith the nutritionist and the ARNP today. All was well, it was about 3.5 hours of questions, answers and some information I had yet to learn.
All lights are green for surgery.
I was down 4lbs from my last apt, and they started the 2 week ( well Ill be just shy of 2 weeks ) liquid protein shake diet.
They do this to make sure your going to handle the liquid part of the diet after surgery.
The nutritionist also took pictures ( for before ) and measurements. This will be done again at 2 weeks post op and 3 months post op appointments.
Im excited to see what changes come with that!
For the next two weeks :
- Drink lots of water
- Work on intake of vitamins
- Work on 6 meals a day ( protein shakes for now )
- Get ready for the couple of rough months post op, by having things settled at home, and supplies on hand.
- Try to stay stress free, and breath through this bumpy area.
Stats : Weight 222 lbs, Bust ______, Hips ______, Legs ______, Waist ______ Shoulders ____ * I will be sure to ask those measurements because I forgot to write them down. It will help to see where Im at - where Im going.
I CAN DO THIS!
