3 days to go

Surgery day is almost here and my nerves are in check. I have stopped obsessing about dying during surgery and I am concentrating on the journey to come. I stopped eating sugar for about a week and it is amazing how much that helps clear up my moodiness. I also just feel better when I don't have too much sugar in my system.

 

Well, my dad was in town this weekend and so I indulged in a last meal. We took him for hibachi and then followed up with frozen custard. It was sooo yummy. However, I must say that I am looking forward to being full with a small amount of food.

 

My core issue is that I am a binge eater and the band is going to be a tool in avoiding that bad behaviour. I have been so successful in the past with excersise that I know if my eating is in check I have unlimited potential to get exactly where I want to be.

 

So, since I am 3 days from surgery I thought this would be the time to put my goal in writing. Here are my goals:

 

1. Get to 167 pounds (6lbs less than my lowest) by next April

2. Be a healthy, happy, energetic mom & wife

3. Have a healthy 2nd pregnancy

4. Get a TT or LBL once I am back to goal (167) after baby #2

 

Ok, so that is it! I lost 120 w/o a band so I know with the band I can make it happen! I am really excited to start moving my old clothes to the front of the closet. :P

 

Well, I am off to get some rest. Goodnight.
