When I look down , I see the same belly, hips, and thighs that I've always seen. My clothes tell the story because they are falling off of
Yes I spelled it Wonder ,because I wonder what its going to feel like to be back in my 100's, I can't remember the last time I saw a 1 as the first number of my weight ...sigh!!!!!

I have read so many encouraging and informative posts on this site and they have all made me calm and ready for my Sleeve Surgery on Monday.

She's the best and switching over to her was the best decision I ever made! I was excited on Wednesday ,because following this liquid diet enable me to have a good BP on my visit to her office. normally I was getting some d
Dr. Tariq's nurse called yesterday to inquire how the diet is going and to have me go stand on the scales , yeeeeeah me!!!!!! I have lost 16 lbs from 3 wks ago following this liquid diet. Only a few more days until I get the sleeve I am so happy to finally reach this day! I have gotten hungry and been very tempted to just bounce back into my old habits and whip a mean meal that satisfies the soul, but I think about the greater good in what I am trying to do for myself and the sabotage thoughts
I've done this liquid diet for a week now and I have lost a total of 3lbs for the week , I started cutting my intake of everything a week before that and doing my Jazzercise. I have a total weight loss of 10lbs from my doctor visit 3 1/2 wks ago Yeahhhhh!!!!!! My surgeon Dr. Nabil Tariq on 6/17/11 told me he wants me to lose 5 more lbs before the 27th , I feel confident I can do it .
