    Guess who just got their date?! This chick right here!! July 24th I lose a part of me (% of my stomach) that I'm confident I won't miss overly much and will result in my losing a bigger part of me that is a burden (my fat). :)

    Hi, my name is Rob and I'm addicted to food. I'm restarting this journey to weight loss surgery. I have my first weigh in on July 14th and hope to be down 10 pounds from where I am at now. This has been a long, hard, emotional journey and I need it to start going in the right direction.

    How often do you weigh yourself?

    1. Colleen C

      Colleen C

      Everyday. Once I get past this liquid diet and on to food, I will stop and maybe once or twice a week.

    My surgery is less than a week away and I'm starting to get very nervous. Having panic attacks. Were any of you like this??

    1. Colleen C

      Colleen C

      Mine is tomorrow (surgery) not nervous. Try to remind yourself why you are doing this. I have been going to counselor dealing with the lifestyle change this includes.

      Its been okay. I don't understand, I am not hungry but my stomach has been really hurting like a raw feeling for days. I don't understand why. The day I ate some baked chicken it went away for a while. Surgery being tomorrow I thought it was best to stay liquid. How are you?
