I cant believe surgery is almost here...It has yet to sink in...I mean REALLY sink in! I was doing well with my diet for the past few months, even lost 20 lbs! I weighed myself on Friday morning and I was still at 219, but I did some indulging Friday night and this weekend....so I hope I don't gain very much
I really wanted some chicken wings, but then my mom mentioned bbq (which is one of my favorite things) so hubby and I went out to get ribs and fried pickles at our favorite place. Yesterday wasn't that bad...Had some low fat french toast from trader joes and an orange for Breakfast, a Protein shake for lunch and some thai take out for dinner (from our most favorite place!) but I didn't get a fried dish...this morning I had a couple blueberry pancakes with sugar free syrup, turkey sausage and one egg. Lunch will also be on the light side since I am at work (I work with prader willi individuals on a strict diet so everything at work is pretty healthy to eat) but this evening one of my girlfriends is coming over for dinner and I'm thinking we will be ordering pizza....
I feel like I should be saying goodbye to all my favorite foods, but I also don't want to sabotage myself. Thats the old me...self sabotaging me. I want to succeed! So needless to say, I am REALLY looking forward to Wednesday! Ive even started to get my hospital bag together! I am super scared, but that nervousness has been slowly going away....I am more excited for the first day of the rest of my life to start!!!
