Small (pun intended) but momentous victory almost 70lbs down

Couple of the little things I'm looking forward to.
I travel for work weekly not having to worry about airplane seats and being squat next to someone, being able to Walt in a beach with my **** off and not feel uncomfortable ( or feel like everyone is staring at me) and being able to wear a suit 41 years old and never worn a suit

If we were able to do weeks of healthy pre-op eating, we wouldn't need surgery. I did 2 days pre-op liquids. Great surgery, 3 weeks later, smooth, lumpy Soups, and I had a piece of chicken yesterday. Tilapia the day before, a little nausea but it passed quickly. We each should listen to who we work with

I know everyone is different and have different circumstances but I find it hard to believe that anyone would go through the process of having a life changing surgery and risk it or sabotage there success by cheating on there diet when in reality your only hurting yourself. Not trying to be critical or almighty just my thinking and mho

I am/was waiting 4 years from me Dr. referral never heard a thing till last October when I had to do some web semesters, a week trial run on a liquid diet, then had to see my nut. And coordinator after that wait to meet with the surgeon got a call last week's for surgery on June 26th. It took a long time to get the ball rolling but when it did I don't think it has been to bad.
