Best of luck. Are you having surgery near home? You need lots of support and visit the nutritional psychologist, the dietician, the nutritionist, and the counselor who manages your case. I had great support at Northwestern University's Hospital-Northwestern Memorial. The nutritional classes were invaluable support. Four classes before, three after. I felt well prepared. My cousin's husband lost 275# with bypass surgery, but sugary sodas and peroggies are not helpful. He is still close to 400! And he needs a new heart-which he'll never get because of that weight! Stay close to your recommendations for your diet. Plan to look back in stages. Try taking portraits every 2or 3 months. You'll be so amazed my husband is tired of me saying, 'I can't believe it!' He says to just believe and enjoy!

Guilt!! Hell. That's what you came to have removed!! You are beautiful and amazing! I don't even know you! You want to be healthier for you and your family. No more worrying about weight! You are doing it. NO GUILT! Most important-kids can weight while you drink a Protein shake and eat Vitamins. Drink the water-set timers. You must do at least those three things for you. Plan New Years-a drink or two, half of a dessert, no bread or potatoes or Pasta. Just plan. You find you stayed close to it and you'll be very pleased with yourself!
