  1. Well, so far so good. I can't believe how easy this pre-op diet has been for me even though it is a fraction of what I normally eat. On another note, Not to be gross but I am so bummed that I am going to have my period on surgery day. How embarressing it is going to be....I was told that there will more likely be a cathader....OH God, I just shudder at the thought. Wednesdays diet: Shake yogart protien bar shake lemongrass chicken lean cuisine zucchinni No gym but I walked the mall 4x:clap2: Thursdays Diet: coffee protien bar shake south beach bar tuscan chicken lean cuisine with zucchinni yogart I burned 450 calories at the gym today!!:clap2:

  15. I'm going to try to record what I eat everyday because I heard it really helps with weight loss. I feel a little thinner. This has not been too too bad.

He bought me a huge box of gourmet chocolates for Valentines day......What was he thinking? I love him anyways.

  18. Sherry, I hope your reflux problems go away. Are you able to take xantax ( I think thats how you spell it?) It works wonders for my husbands heartburn and he gets it really bad. Good luck and don't worry about the unfill...just keep positive and maybe hit the gym more often. Nicole

    You are so funny! I'll have to stock up on the gas x before surgery. Wow, Im so glad for you.....you are doing so well. You are an inspiration!
  24. Well, tomorrow I start the pre-op diet. Please wish me luck. The fact that I haven't told many people is going to make things very hard for me but I'll do it. If anyone asks why I'm not eating, I'll just say I have a stomach bug. PLEASE........WISH ME LUCK!!
