I can NOT believe there is only 3 more days til my surgery. I have waited and worked for this for soooo long. I mean, not as long as I've been overweight... of course! But still, a LONG time!!!

I have to go out today and buy some unflavored protein powder to make sure I'm getting enough protein because I've heard horror stories about losing hair and stuff.... PLUS, the extra protein will help with the weight loss.

I KNOW that I can do this. But there is a tiny voice in the back of my head that's whispering... 'hmmm, what if it doesn't work???'

I am working on blocking that voice out with thoughts of, It HAS to work. This is my last chance. Life or Death. I chose LIFE!!!

I have been pouring over before and after pictures and progress pictures and am AMAZED at how some people look. I want to be one of those people!!!!

This is going to be AMAZING!

YAY!!!!

Three more days!

But for now, I'm drinking my protein shakes and trying to walk.

Man, walking is such a pain when you are fat. I mean, just walking. Blah. I don't want to be this person anymore... I can't wait for the day when I can walk and not have to have my family slow down to keep me company... that will be awesome!!!

So, I just want to blog to basically journal my thoughts while I'm preparing for this awesome ride I'm about to embark on.

Last night, my husband and I went over to my best friend since kindergarten's house to hang out and play SPADES with her and her hubby... We laughed so hard my stomach hurts... She is going to be such a great support for me.

I am blessed to have a lot of people who are excited for me and will be pushing me along on this journey!!! :present:

Alright, that's all for now...

I'm so nervous Jenn! My surgery is Wednesday also! We need to be band buddies! My doctor didn't give me any info on a post op diet, but I went out and bought a bunch of juice and whatnot today. Where did you get the protein powder from? I'm so confused. All the juices have sugar in them, and I thought we werent supposed to have any sugar?

I was told to get juices that say "no added sugar" or "unsweetened". I had my surgery 6 days ago. Doing ok. You can do it.
