Surgery In 19 Days

I am a married mother of 4. My children s' ages 14, 13, 5, and 3. I am currently out of work due to back problems stemming from my weight. I always wondered how people got so fat that they can walk, well now I know..lol...I

was so excited in March then my insurance denied the Auth so I got depressed and ate probably gaining another 20 lbs. But now I finally got the Authorization and scheduled for June 25th. I am so excited!!

So since my Surgery is so close I am will be beginning my pre op diet on Monday. Since I heard the news I have been eating like I'm going to the electric chair. Anyway, this weekend I will go food shopping for the pre-op diet.

it's not a bad diet just a regular low-fat cottage cheese, tuna, chicken breast, fat free milk kind of diet. You know the diet we have all been on at least once in our life. I'm going to prepare my food this weekend thinking

about putting each meal in a zip loc gallon bag and just pull it out when its time to eat. I really suck at pre planning my food and eating low fat with small portions (Hence the weight problem) But I figured it will be a good

practice tool for a new lifestyle which I have to adapt too. Well I will let you know how it all works out. Good Luck to Me
