My thoughts......

Today is my second day on this site, and I really love it. I am so excited. In a week from today, I go for my consultation. Through my research, I know that soda is a no no...I used to drink 3-4 bottles a day, and on the weekends, probably two two liters. I have gone 46 days without a soda....cold turkey. I drink green tea, water, and once in a while a G2.

 

I made my breakfast this morning, and for the first time really tried to watch my carbs....I am only allowed 60 a meal with my diabetic diet, and it worked. Lunch was incredible, too.

 

For supper, i am going to measure.....I am also practicing chewing my food and enjoying it....really tasting it. I am hoping because I have been under a doctor's diet for the past three years (counting carbs) it will boost my surgery date up.....I would really like it done before Christmas....I don't want to blow it all on Christmas dinner, and it would be really nice to start the New Year with a new body and attitude.

 

Have a great day!:smile2:

    Congratulations and best of luck.

    I haven't had soda since 5/1 and any alcohol since 5/3. Somedays that is a shock to me, most of the time I forget :-).
