Good for you Jenn! You're gonna do well!

What a great POST! May borrow it, if needed. LMAO

That sounds like a really good plan. You're on a cycle that is going to play havoc with your emotions. I can so understand all you're feeling starting with the office staff. I've had my problems with them in my Dr office too. They're evrywhere. Just realize, you're dealing wiht a lot right now you're not going to be able to handle everything that comes up like the 'champ'

you are. Give yourself a break and only handle what you need to. What you can't do anything about, let it go. Try not to beat yourself up about 'things'. You have a long road, pace yourself. (I know, I'm beginning to) I agree about Atkins' plan too.

I can sympathize with you. But I am sure you both will find much better things to bond over now. More exciting too!

I can, and very sure most if not so many out there can relate to what you are saying. Almost all of us have our obsessions or triggers. Most wouldn't be dealing with this if it wasn't for depression. Why else let this happen in such a large way? I was married 31 years. If I was happy in my marriage and in my life, I wouldn't be just under 300 lbs. It's an addiction just like gambling, smoking, drugs, etc. Just not viewed in the same way by the masses. I don't have to tell you that. We live it. We're all here because diets and changing our eating habits/lifestyle won't work for us. We're too far into it to get out ourselves without choices, for the major amout we need to lose, being taken out of our hands. Just so we can take control in a real way.

You see what's what and you know what has to be done. You'll be fine. I know it.

Lol Have to say that one really helps get you prepared. As to the kitchen? Step by step instructions on what to have to make easy on you from pre-op through real foods. It's my "WL bible". LOL

Sounds like you're doing great! Yesm have to make sure you're getting your water. I'm pre and waiting so can't help but love to hear your journey!

You and me both with the readings! Did you also get theWLS Cookbook for Dummies?

Really loved that one! Will check out Skinny Jeans too. Thanks.

All the best!

OK just bought it.
