Ozempic: ⟫ 1 mg | Pre-op Diet:⟫ Day 11

Well, I finally crashed around 8.15 am and slept through until this afternoon. Watched the latest episode of ‘From’ with Stripes and now contemplating what we’re going to do with the evening.

I still feel like a failure – I was explaining what’s happening to Gidget and I could feel my body language turning sheepish/ashamed – I wish I could figure this shit out. Stripes and Gidget had the idea of ordering some of the soups instead so I’ve gone onto the New You site and have ordered 18 soups so I can have a shake, soup and small meal until surgery date.

I’m actually too scared to have a shake right now in case it kicks off the diarrhoea again, which is counter productive. I think I’m going to have my ‘meal’ with Stripes when she eats, then risk the shakes later. Maybe even just have one? And if that works, do the same tomorrow but aim for the two shakes. Hopefully the soups, etc will turn up at least by Wednesday and I can go from there.

We are going to email the dietician to ask for advice – just to be sure that I’m doing the right thing. That reminds me, I need to write the email out and ask Stripes if she thinks I’ve added everything important.

Okay – email written and sent to Stripes for her opinion. I think I need to guzzle some water until dinner time then take the evening one step at a time. Until I hear back from the bariatric dietician, I think I’m going to do one meal and a shake – that way, hopefully, the diarrhoea won’t be too bad and even if it is, I’m consuming something.

Gonna do some work on the latest Mantra sheet that Stripes shared with me – apparently it’s about self-compassion. If it wasn’t so on the nose, I think I’d laugh!
