6 more weeks

I started this process about 12 weeks ago and now I only have 6 weeks left. Time is really flying. YIPPEEE!!! I am so excited, but I know I may get scared and nervous again as my surgery date nears.

I know it's kinda early, but I'm already buying soups and protein drinks even though I don't start my liquid diet for another 4 weeks! I am done with most of my testing. I have to see the nutritionist today then I only have the Pulmonary Function Test and the Sleep Apnea Test and I'll be done.

 

I AM HALF WAY THERE!!! :bounce:

You are rolling right along. It is never to early to start preparing. Have you tried the shakes yet? I started drinking Atkins Advantage once a day before I had surgery. I was practicing eating less and worked wonderfully.

Have you been practicing your new exercise routine yet? Perhaps some walking in place or around the house.

I do 30 min. circuit training 3 to 5 days a week. I've been doing that consistently for about a year and a half. I will increase to 6 to 7 days a week after banding. I enjoy exercising so that has never been my problem...Overeating IS, but I hope to soon take care of that!
