  1. Today is a new day.  I will be positive and joyful.  LOL  Now that I said that, let's see what comes my way to try and get me off of my joyful high.  My kid's behaviors, hubby not listening to me (lol), an obstacle in the way of our remodel?  I will laugh through it.  Ha! (I'll have to update later.....)

    So, I'm up early on a Sat morning.  It's somewhat usual.  I'm enjoying the QUIET of the house and drinking my last iced coffee, made with Chameleon brand cold brew, almond milk (unsweetened), and a tad almond creamer, caramel flavoring.  I have been having decaf for the past month or so, but I allow one cup of regular coffee once a week.  So this is my last and I'm enjoying it. :)

    Pre-op starts Monday for me.  I'm to have a shake and go pick up my pre-op paperwork from the center I'm going to.  They said it'll take about 10-15 mins to go over.  I failed to ask if that's when I make my payment or not.  I'm going to pay using my cash rewards card, even though I have the cash (will just turn around and pay it off).  Why not make money, right?  I'll be doing two shakes and a meal for two weeks.  Of course, the meal will be restricted.  Not sure about snacks though.  I'm a snacker....and that's going to be the hardest part for me.  Overall, I'm ready to get this show on the road!!!

      Thanks @Sweet as peaches. I'm eager to find out how you fared these last four days as well! I know you'll keep us posted. 😉

      Glad all is going well with your pre-op, sounds like you're doing really well. There's things that you can snack on that are yummy to eat but don't count as calories such a raw veggies and salsa dip, which I love. I can't get enough raw cauliflower, carrot and cucumber and they're not naughty, so it's a win. Keep up the good work.

      i am 6 weeks post op now and life is back to normal really. I have a very small bowl that I use for every meal and it fills me up. It is about 1/4 or 1/5 of what I used to eat. I'm pretty much just eating what I cook for the family, which is healthy anyway. I have reintroduced all foods now except I now don't eat bread or cakes, biscuits etc. not much in the way of desserts now, just fruit or a low cal ice cream. I'm over half way to my goal weight, having lost 34lbs/15.5kgs. Very happy indeed.

      you go !! Do ya thang!!!@Sweet as peaches You are doing great. I know I was soo excited for my first weigh in after the 1 week of pre-op. I was hyper active and the number only made me want to keep going.

      @Brit in Oz is killing her weight loss goal. Being half way there in just 6 weeks is amazing.
