My day 7th also. This is getting real. I have had 2 weeks preop and have lost 10 lbs.

I'm May 7. Been on Preop for 10 days lost 10 lbs. cheated a few times mainly with protein. I am now starting on the OMGWAID phase. I am getting so scared. Am i really going to let someone cut out over 3/4 of my stomach?

Oh this is my dream. I really want off my mess.

Wonderful wonderful wonderful ideas. I am unsubscribing to all of those wonderful woman sized clothing lines as we speak.

May 7 for me and I should be doing 2 shakes and a decent meal a day but I got so lightheaded and so sick that I'm doing one protein shake and 2 high protein low carb decent meals a day.

You look beautiful I love your hair and your smile I can tell you're happy and healthy I can only hope the same.

You are so cute in both picts. You look great!

Tonight I just bought a 30 lb bag of dog food. I cant believe you have lost that much. Wow. Congrats. I pray I do that well.

Yahoo! I am happy your on the path...I mean the yellow brick road...to a healthy future.

Yahoo. 230

I told my boss I was getting a hernia operation which is true, just not the whole truth. I have 3 weeks off before Summer school so I will be I'll at least be able to eat soup and that will not be too odd at my work. But I will be honest if asked directly.

I totally get it. I often often often wonder how I can be so big yet so invisible. I have to add a few of my own...a few borrowed from others.... .......meds .......clothes with an X .......granny panties .......a swimsuit with a skirt .......pain when I bend over .......people asking can you eat that? Thanks I needed that!

good for you. I would like to say that I have been perfect but it would be a lie, but i have been close. All I can say is ONE DAY AT A TIME! It does get a little easier. Good luck to us all.

Don't be hard on yourself you are human and temptations happen, you could have eaten a whole pizza, or should I say I could have. I had to stay at home yesterday while my coworkers had a Crawfish Biol because I knew there was no way I could say no. I would not have handled it well. As it was I had a too large of dinner with my mother. So today is staying home grading term papers and trying not to eat. I can do this. You can do this. I want an easy surgery so I am going to give it all I have. Just know you are not alone!!!

3 people know about my surgery, my mother, my best friend and my hairdresser (dont y'all tell her everything? ) My mother is gung ho because she knows how sick I have been and that I am doing this to be healthy, my best friend is concerned and being in the medical field has asked a lot of questions but supports me and will always be on my side. My hairdresser...I'm not sure except she is ready and willing to help if I start losing a lot of hair! As for the rest of them...friends and family...I have spent 30 years being the fat one, the funny one, the one with the pretty eyes...I'll let them have their opinion and I will know the reason I am doing this is I want a future and if I don't do this it will not be the long happy one I envision.

May 7th Can't come soon enough! Good luck to us all.

Sounds good. I understand im afraid a tattoo would get all warped when we lost weight. That sounds so very cool.

You're beautiful in both those pictures I am very sorry that you had a hard time at the beginning but it sounds like you really what is it they called it? working your sleeve. You are a true inspiration thank you for sharing.

I'm just on day six of my preop diet two proteins shakes a day and when sensible small meal. But I have found that a little bit of bouillon or warm tea really does help I like the idea of warm food.

what are you thinking of getting. I have a butterfly on one ankle and thinking of gifting myself with another or maybe a bird on the other.

Wow. I cannot believe someone would do that. I am scared of work. There are always donuts and candy there.

I am so much in all your shoes. I am in day 6 of my preop and I am so hungry. I'm light headed and having muscle cramps.

May 7 is my day. Almost 1 week into preop diet. Already lost 8 lbs. I've starving. 2 shakes a day. 1 meal. Augh. Can I do this any more?

Beautiful! Great job. A true inspiration.

Beautifully written! Thank you!
