Entry Can Hardly Wait
Jul 05 2009 15:18


Just thinking about next Sunday.  I will be eating loads of Jell-o, & drinking lots of water, with maybe a dash of coffee.  All this, in preparation for my colonoscopy the following day.  I guess I should be looking on the bright side...I'll probably be losing some weight from the lack of real food!  Can hardly wait 'til the procedure is over & done with.  Doesn't sound like an exciting time to me...maybe for the Gastroenterologist!  LOL

In the meantime, tomorrow, I will be starting PT.  I'm hoping the therapist will be able to teach me a bunch of safe exercises that I can do that can help me strengthen my core & protect my back.  Wouldn't hurt if the exercises could also help in my weight loss efforts as well.  Eh?

I believe you will find you may loose a little doing those exercises, at least I did some years ago ~ about 8 pounds in a month in a half.  But you must be consistent and do them at home too.  I am rooting for you!

I'll say a little prayer for your procedure and the nerves you must be going through.

Take care and God Bless.
