My surgery is scheduled for the 25th. It seems I've been waiting forever. I have already signed everything at the hospital and gave up my coins,.....clock is ticking.

Today I stayed in the house and was tempted to do some munching as I studied. Everytime I got the urge to go into the kitchen, I just grabbed my water and went to town. I had 2 shakes today, and a salad and some greenbeans with tuna. I made my family mac n cheese with meatloaf and spinich and almost plucked a macaroni in my mouth that fell on the stove. Whew that was close. I usually feed my daughter but my fiancee has had to contend with that job....I'm strong enough to withstand food but not strong enough to feed the baby without temptation.Isn't that a shame? Well, I'm gonna excercise now and get ready for my week. Three more days, then I'm banded. Still tryna find the chewable citrate....no luck in stores here in Houston.

Good luck! So exciting. I hear ya about being tempted especially with the kids and food. I have 2 toddlers and I am so used to taking bites here and there of their food and then finishing there scraps. Horrible! I love mac and cheese and I made it for them the other day. I just stared at it. Pretty pathetic but i as strong and drank my crystal light! The things we go through!!
