Am so proud of my self, been on my pre op diet a week today and had my 30 the birthday Saturday night, yes I ate a couple of little appetisers but did not go stupid and I didn't drink! Since then the house has been full of left over appetisers, cake, lollies, chips etc and not once have a caved in and ate them, not even a nibble! I've lost almost 4kg so far! Hoping for 6 before surgery

That is something to be proud of. Temptation is everywhere and knowing your limitations and making good choices are key (I'm preaching to the choir). Happy belated birthday and good luck with your journey. I am just starting out, myself, but those small victories sure do feel good!
