Pre-Op Appt.

Well I went for my pre-op appt today and will start my liquid diet tomorrow. To prepare for the liquid diet, my son and I went to New Orleans and ate everything we wanted. Not only was I able to mentally prepare for the liquid diet but I also got to enjoy reconnecting with my teenage son. I thought for sure when I went for my pre-op appt I would have gained weight with everything we ate(jambalya, red beans and rice, benets, bananas foster, etc.). I actually lost 2 more pounds. I think mentally I already cut back my portions and now I dont feel a bit guilty about leaving food uneaten. This is a huge step for me and just another sign that I am ready. Only 2 more weeks and I will jump head first into the losers circle. :D

Congrats on making the decision to be sleeved. I hope you have a totally uneventful surgery and recovery! Looking forward to reading your posts when you are on the "after" side of things!

Good luck on the 2 weeks of liquid. I am in that boat with you. Surgery is July 11.
