  1. I was ecstatic to be told at my doctor's visit yesterday that I have lost 13lbs since the first appointment with them! I had been trying to watch my p's and q's and I guess it worked. I have lost about 7lbs since the dreaded diet began. It wouldn't be so bad if I wasn't hungry and craving chili cheese fries:)
    I hope after the surgery that all those crazy craving melt away with the fat.
  2. 7 days now on the pre-op diet and 7 to go. It has been hard, not gonna lie. It seems the protein food does not sit well with me and honestly I would rather not eat than eat the diet food. I cheated last night and had a bunch of broccoli (if you could call that cheating). It felt good to eat something that felt "normal", but regretting it because I wonder how I am going to do post-op if I couldn't even make it 7 days on a diet. Good thing is that in those 7 days I have lost a bit over 6 pounds! It makes it worth the torture! I have been thinking of food more the past two days. Wishing I could have this one last time or that one last time. Hope it all passes after surgery.
    I go today for my "product check" appointment. Can't wait to get on the scale there. Probably get yelled at for not eating every 2 hours.
    Not nervous about having surgery, but am nervous about the weeks after surgery. Praying all goes well and I heal well. No infections and no leaks please!
