Nutrition Class Part II

So the nutrition class was good, there were a lot of people there, so that sucked, but otherwise good. It was very informational and scary. It basically went over how much different I will eat post-op. I can only eat a small amount of food and have to make sure the amounts I do eat are full of good protein and good fats. Of course, I can still eat things like small treats and have the occasional glass of wine, but it will be very different. It was cool though, because I really don't know how you are supposed to eat. I just eat whatever the hell I want now and don't really care.

I can't wait to have my pulmonary stuff done soon, I am really getting antsy to have the surgery and be done with it! I had to use this machine last night that measures how much oxygen you are getting as you breathe as well as my pulse through out the night. I got like ZERO sleep because it is a thing that clips onto your index finger and I kept waking up worrying if I had pulled it off in my sleep or what. At one time I actually did! I woke up at 4-something and it was on the ground and the alarm (that is really freaking quiet by the way) was beeping. I was so annoyed!! I just want to move on with my life and start to become more healthy. In order to achieve this, I am willing to do ANYTHING!!! It is going to be a big change in my life because I will be expected to do 20-30 minutes of exercise 4-5 times a week! I don't do any exercise now, so that will be interesting. Especially with Josh, I wonder if he is ready to make that change with me...

Guess I will find out.

I'll blog more later, I am pretty tired from lack of sleep...
