I'd better be ready. IT'S TIME!

Just finished packing. Hubby and I are flying to San Antonio tomorrow to meet Dr Alvarez' driver who will take us to Eagle Pass. Then it's over the border for surgery Friday a.m.

I can't believe I'll be on The Other Side so soon! Yay me.

So excited! My passport came today! I also just attended the funeral of a friend who lost her battle with cancer and I realize that life is just too short to spend it overweight and unhappy. I've really enjoyed reading in this forum and getting all the positive motivation. Anyone else going to se Dr. Kelly on the 13th?

Mel, i hope you enjoy your vacation... have enough fun for too...

I was excited and looking forward to it until I heard about the lady who died with Dr. Kelly. Now, I'm nervous & scared. I imagine that I'll be going back & forth between all the feelings there are until it's over with. I get to go on vacation to the beach with some friends before I have to start the pre-op diet. So, I'll try my best to enjoy the end of the old me & get ready to welcome in the new me.

Got my date! My new life starts July 18th! I am so excited! I talked my doctor's office and they are letting me do part of my pre op this week. That means I can spend 4 days at the beach (once my daughter gets back from her mission trip) before I do my final pre op the 15th and start my new life tan and happy! :) Woo-Hoo! Put me on that list and make room on the losers' bench.

July 27 - 2 1/2 weeks away, I am more than ready! Just got to go shopping for broth, Iso Pure liquid Protein, SF Jello and popsicles! All equipment is bought: Magic Bullet, 3 cup food processor, digital food scale!

I am so excited and not nervous about the surgery at all! I have thoughts about life post surgery but nothing serious!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
