Oops, pls excuse the multi post. Phone is being wacky

So looks like so far I will be the first for the month...scary! Guess I will need to post every day after surgery to let you know what each day brings! lol. Are you all as scared as I am? One minute I am excited about it and find myself dreaming of the new me - the next my stomach turns and I am asking myself what the heck am I doing!

What part of AK are in in kitten? Went on cruise last year to Alaska - scenery was mind blowing. Disappointed because I didnt see any whales though!

Sorry - see where lovy is having hers on the 4th..So YOU get to start this for all of us! You will need to check in as soon as you can after surgery since I will be going in the next morning. Only 18 more days!!!

I'm in anchorage, the biggest city. Don't feel so bad, I've lived here for the majority of my life and never seen a whale. Lots of moose, foxs, rabbits, and bears but never whales. I probably don't make it to the Water enough tho.

I'm not so much scared as I am in disbelief. It's something I've thought about for so long that it doesn't seem true. I find that during the day I'm excited but at night I start to get nervous. This website has helped tremendously tho.

My surgery is on August 1 !! This is finally happening! I started this journey in March and I started my 2 week liquid diet today . I've finished my food funerals so I started it a day early.

I am 55 years old and weighed 262.6 this morning. My hubby helped me take my measurements so I can keep track of my progress . I found out today that I do not like Premier protein shakes although I did finish the one I opened. I do like Muscle Milk!

Congratulations and best wishes to all of you and I look forward to sharing this experience with you!!

Welcome Sky! So now you are the 1st batter up in August!!! You will need to post daily so lovyac and I will know what to exe on the 4th and 5th! lol

Today is day 4 on the liquid pre op diet. Yesterday I made myself some yummy homemade tomato soup and added unflavored protein powder. My grandson who is 6 ate soup with me instead of what the rest of the family was having(with no protein powder). He is so sweet! Down 6 pounds so far on the liquid diet!
