Count me in! I was scheduled to have my sleeve surgery tomorrow, but I have a bad chest cold. When the anesthesia dept. called this morning for the pre-op check-in, the NP listened to me cough and said no way would they do surgery on me at this point! With their requirements and my schedule, I'm rescheduled for July 18th. I just finished my 2 week pre-op, liquids-only diet but of course can't keep doing that until july 18th! I need a way to encourage me to stick to healthy eating before I go back on liquids-only (July 4th) so this is GREAT!!!

I'm in already but didn't give stats. Heading out of town for the weekend so put me at SW 218 and goal 199!!! Probably not attainable but wouldn't it be amazing????? Will be chaperoning scout camp in there, with a mile walk to the mess hall! The downside? Not much control over the menu. Wish me luck!!

      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!!
