Yeah, I'm quite organised this year. Today I need to take the kids down to the shops as Fraser is getting some And1 basketball shoes, so I need him with me, and I need to nick out alone at some point in time and buy them some swimming pool passes - we've given both boys four movie passes each and I'll get four pool passes and I got some tickets for Luna Park for them too (amusement park in Melbourne). Its summer here and they're off school for six weeks or so so we'll need something to do over the long holiday, as we're only going away for a week.

We're going to SIL's and my sis's for Christmas Eve and Christmas day respectively so apart from make my super special Christmas Ice cream and brandied fruit thingo, I dont have to do anything - no cleaning or cooking. YAY!

But I have to outlast the little buggers on Christmas Eve, Eliza is only little, but the boys know that Santa is really mum and dad and they will be staying awake to catch us out, I'll probably be up till 4am before they drop off!

I'm as ready as I ever will be - it sort of snuck up on me this year and the kids are older (but the youngest - 8 still believes) It's been hard to keep it a secret but an e-mail received from Santa's village with personal tidbits did the trick. Keeping the little ones busy for that long will certainly be a challenge but it sounds like you have a plan. Good luck and have a great holiday. Merry Christmas.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
