I started out on this forum thinking I would write everyday, but that fell through. So here's where I'm at now.

I've completed the insurance mandated pre op classes and then went on to complete the post class psych class. (Yes, I needed to have a psych eval before I even started the classes) Kaiser is very into making sure each person that they accept into the program is prepared and motivated before they operate.

During this time I've done the whole fitnesspal thing and logged almost everything I've eaten. I've even been eating with a baby spoon. Pretty much I've been doing everything they've asked. I'm still having a hard time with not drinking while eating but expect that'll take care of itself once I have my surgery and can't fit it all in my stomach.

Now all I'm waiting for is the nurse to call me for my surgical consult and pre op physical! I can't wait as I'm very motivated to make this change and want to strike while the fire is burning. I'll get back when I get my surgery date.

@@donald0717 Sounds like your making good progress!
