I've had my moments of wanting to say screw it, but I managed to implant in my brain at the beginning of this that if I had been diagnosed with cancer, high blood pressure, or diabetes, I would have been even more limited in the meal choices I have, and these meals are really great, it was always a matter of how much I ate, I also have promised myself that if I treat myself to fast food it would be limited to maybe 2 or 3 times a year, and I hope I get sick from it soay learn my lesson ????

I'm actually very at peace with the surgery and everything afterwards, it's all the stuff surrounding it that has me stressed, my wife freakn was it gets closer, my FMLA pay being approved, my car being fixed today..........on a lighter note I was losing weight too fast since I started my pre op, so I had to slow down, seriously that's something I really gotta watch afterward, I lose weight way too fast, just on stopping the snacking, sodas, and my energy drinks, so that combined with my diet, 364.2 down to 349 in week and 3 days!

      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!!
