June 1, three days to go.........

Day 5 of pre-op diet, and I went coo coo over lettuce my girls ate up and didn't leave me any! I even cried over LETTUCE!! But, I appologized and found something else green to eat. I am just glad its summer and they can go outside and get away from me when those meltdowns happen!

 

I weighed myself last night and was pleasently surprised that I was 11 pounds down already. That is such a nice sign of times to come. (I know I know it will be much slower and that is OK)

 

I am telling everyone that cares anything about me about this move. Not to brag, but to make myself accountable to them (but they don't know that!) Being single for so long, have someone to be accountable to is crucial--I can cheat on myself and no one has to know, but if others know what I am striving for, I have to prove it them, but mostly to myself.

 

Friday won't come soon enough, I am ready for this new life!

    so, out of curiousity, what is your pre-diet. My surgeon went over mine with me (but I am not approved yet) but mine is liquids only. I hear you talk of lettuce. that would probably be most welcome after nothing but liquids. 11 pounds already? holy cow. how long has it been are you on the seven day or ten day pre-diet?

    my surgeon says 6 days of high high protein and low low carbs, then the day before surgery clear liquids. Really enjoyed my last meal, shrimp scampi and salad
