Glad to hear you are feeling so well Deb:) It is hard to describe the amazing transformation you will go through (especially mentally) over the next few months. I am excited for you! I am doing great and feeling like a new person! I am eating ALOT more now than most (about 1,000-1,100 cal/day) per my dr.'s recommendation because I was getting very hungry, but I am also working out alot. Slow and steady loss with some short stalls in between. It's all good - at least this time it is coming off for good! Hope you continue to feel great - talk to you soon!

It sounds like you are doing pretty well on pre-op. I battled the whole "being perfect" thing as well - I was on it for 3 weeks. I completely cracked mid diet and cheated because I felt like I was losing my mind, then I really had to say to myself.."Just do the best you can and that will have to be good enough." You'll be just fine:) When my Dr. asked me how much I followed it, I told him about 80% of the time and I was proud of my accomplishment. You can do it Happy Destiny!!!! Good luck this week:)

Hey Wannalise -
Thanks for the message. Life is so much easier now at 5 weeks out - ahhhhh real food! I'm definitely not as fixated on all the little things like I was a few weeks ago. Things are really busy so I am just trying to get my protein in, exercise some, and be as "normal" as possible:) How are you doing? I haven't been on the boards as much in the last 2 weeks, but come summertime and I will be more involved. Hope you are having a great weekend and keep me updated on your progress.
Take Care,

Thanks for the nice comments! Are you getting excited? Your date is almost here:) How is the pre-op diet going? That was definitely harder than anything else for me. Hang in there because it will all be worth it!!!

Wannalise - I responded to your post on my thread (Little Miss Sunshine has left the building...) but wanted to make sure to personally thank you. I thought about your response all day Sunday and vowed to do something about it today at work. I actually grabbed my stuff, ate in the teacher's lounge and was social. It was nice not to feel so isolated. Best part of all, nobody commented on what I was eating/drinking. I think my ups and downs last week were extreme and what I was doing didn't help at all. Thank you from the bottom of my heart - today was a much better day:) Hope you are well! VV2010
