Suppose to be in Twizel by now but still at home cause things changed about 3 this afternoon.
Firstly this morning I went to the pool for an hour at 7.30 weighed in while there and clocked in at 145.3 which is atotal of 15.1 k gone pre op Had a lovley spa after aquajogging but only for 15 mins not the usual 30 because needed to get home showered and changed for a beautican appointment face wax and pedicure...felt good to be pampered and a wee bit of a wind down things have felt like a merry go round of later. Next appointment was at 11.45 at the surgeon a new one Mr Richard Flint at Southern Obesity Surgery, Alan came to. Flint just couldnt understand why the other fella wouldnt do the surgery...the breathing results lung xray and blood results are all normal...yeah so I have asthma dah so do a lot of other patients...if Kelly thinks he is only gonna operate on healthy obese people he is in for a shock.
So all went well with surgeon opertation is set down for 13th May...all good there.
Went to lunch along the road cause had another appoinment at same office 1.5 later not enough time to shot home really...had a yummy salad for lunch and shouted myself a diet coke.
Back to next appointment at 2pm and things went a bit topsy tervey around that time. The breathing specialist was also very satisfied with results he had. xray was fine, chest was clear when he listened, the breathing test down last month was good enough that he didnt want another one done, lung capsity good..oxygen levels great, yeah so I have a bit of asthma well that is possibly weight related, I said that is what I hae said all along.
Then the bombshell hit...sleep apneia he asked me the stock standard questions I have been asked before I knew the right answers to give but that is just lieing and after all it is my health we are playing with here which equates to my life. So u guessed it he wants me to do sleep tests...I have a smaller version of the sleep test machine for the night will drop it into the clinic tomorow on way out of town. they will then contact the sleep clinic at public and hope I can get all done on the cheap..he was mindful of the cost of surgery, which I appreciate greatly. So staying home another night.
Been to supermarket and got salad mix for tea as I have already packed everything into chilli bin and cant be tossed unloading it again. Going to be a little leaniant with optifast diet for a few days will stil do it but like tonight having a little salmon with my salad...I dnt think I'll hold out for 6weeks al up
I am whacked and am sure will go into a deep sleep tnight...could go to bed now if truth be known and it not 7 yet.
Cant decide if I'll go to pool tomorrow if I do it will have to be at 7 to be home and fed b4 8.30 when we r leaving for Twizel.
Alan still doesnt know I am still home cause he left his phone at home today wont that be a nice surprise for him

As I mentioned on the phone, the sleep apnea is just another reason why you need this surgery. Sounds as though they just want to make sure they know what they are dealing with.
Awesome news that the surgery is only 3 and a bit weeks away!!! Exciting!!!!!!!
I hope the sleep thing is ok and you DO get your surgery!
