I don't know if I'm going to be on the computer when I get home later. I'll be leaving soon to go to my son's to do laundry and from there to the eye surgery center for the first of two cataract surgeries. I will be talking to the doctor about computer time. Since the site seems to be working better than it has, here are the stats for Saturday and Sunday. I'm using a different format found on my Fitbit. Food August 1 Calories: 1178 Carbs: 49% Fat: 24% Protein: 27% Uncategorized Calories: 85 Fitness Steps: 18,633 Miles: 7.02 Activity/Exercise: 125 Minutes Water: 56 ounces Calories burned: 2311 Total calories: -1133 Weight: 184.2 August 2 Food Calories: 1275 Carbs: 50% Fat: 29% Protein: 21% Uncategorized Calories: 44 Fitness Steps: 17,495 Miles: 6.59 Activity/Exercise: 109 Minutes Water: 64 ounces Calories burned: 2330 Total calories: -1055 Weight: 183.8 Today is a no eating day before the surgery. They said I could take my medication and have water. I only take a Vitamin D tablet. It can wait and so can the water until I get home. How did you do with food and exercise? Thanks for reading.

They say it is due to the anesthesia they give you.

@CarolDM It is not a full anesthesia, but something to make you feel comfortable . I had it before

@marlina We are suggested not to eat for at least three hours before surgery, but NOT a full day! My husband had dinner even before his hernia surgery.

Weird that they asked not to eat for a full day for such a simple surgery. Good luck for tomorrow, everything will be fine.

@just4him From midnight it makes sense, they usually say nothing from 6 hours before surgery. Did you already get surgery?

I'm home. But I won't be on the computer too much longer. My left eye is still whacky. It should be back to normal tomorrow. Then I have my next surgery on Thursday morning.

@marlina Yes, it is, but they accepted the dates my son gave them. I'm glad it's over this week. I don't know how long I'll be without proper glasses. I'm feeling the effects this morning. One eye needs the glasses, the other doesn't. I have my followup this afternoon.

I must have missed a discussion. Didn’t realize you were having surgery. You’ll be in my prayers

Yes, it did. One thing we didn't do, grocery shopping. The nurse told my son, no can do. We'll go shopping tomorrow after my follow up appointment.

It did. My left eye is still foggy, something they said would happen, but will clear up. I can tell you my lights are brighter than I thought possible. Even the computer screen is a bit harsh at the moment. I don't know how long I will be here.

You've missed a lot of meals in the past few months, so you're making up for it.

That's with all the steps I got yesterday including the walk in the rain. That wasn't smart. It was only a drizzle, but the mosquitoes tried to mess with me.
