My Journey. 290 lbs

Hello I love this form and have decided I am going to do a very detail journey review. I am hoping this will help others as it will help me. I will have many youtube videos pics what I eat. My pants size ect. Every detail I can think of. I want to start by my age 30 290lbs 5'9. I start my 2 week liquid diet on the 29th. I am nervous and excited at the same time. I have downloaded My Fitness Pal and order that step counter and scale that sync with it. Awesome going to love that. Next I have my protein shakes ready to go. I am having my surgery done in Mexico Dr. Kuri. Jan 11th 2012 Will update all of that information also. Have already made my apt for my fill Dr afterwards. Set my workout schedule and purchase a new pair of tennis shoes. Thank you for letting me post. Talk to you again soon.

A New Dawn....LOVE THAT! How did you think of a great Screen Name....The night before PreOp.Diet.Ok so I want to feed my face with anything that is high in fat. I have kids so my husband is stopping by MCD and asked do I want something...I so want to say YES..But The fitness pal app I have been using for three days now. Just to add a 10 piece meal in. Is two days worth of cal in take and well...I will just get me a protein shake. I dont need it..Yay! Go me...Hugs Girls and Guys. I will start my videos tomorrow...Go us. We can do this...

Great job! Sometimes we have to take this in baby steps and taking it one day at a time is a great way to do it. One day closer. :)

As for "a new Dawn"... no kudos for me, since my name is Dawn I came up w/ it pretty easy.

I look forward to reading your journey. I am same height and was about that weight at my first consult. That's great that you will share and inspire others.

I am so excited! Day Three of the Pre Op Diet and well I have been doing videos but oh I look a mess. Promise to post. Ok how am I do. I am hungry or think I am. My husband fudge is out. Baked cookies for my kids ham ect. But I tell my self NO YOU CAN DO THIS and I push on. I have been reading alot about tummy tucks because I know I will have loose skin. MOST IMPORTANT! Is the lady Angele that is helping with my surgery in Mexico called. Making sure I got my plan ticket and yes I do....I thought that was great
