Getting closer and I can't wait!

So, I have successfully completed 3.5 weeks on the Atkins diet and still going. I started the diet at 219 and now I am at 210. Amazing! It hasn't been easy but it worked and now I am well past my surgery weight. I will have to say I am SICk of this diet. I am bored and i think of cheating all the time. I wonder if this is how its going to be with the band. It scares me. I haven't strayed from this strict eating yet but I feel it coming soon. There is only so much I can take. I am working on head hunger/cravings. I drink Crystal Light whenever I want something sweet. Its working so far......

So next week is a big week for me. I meet with the surgeon on the 16th and then I have my last appointment with the Medical Dr. for clearance on the 17th. I was told after that they submit my paperwork for insurance approval.

I am so ready. Reading everyones blogs has got me inspired and I can't wait to see how this is going to work for me.
