So yesterday I was asked to be in a wedding that's happening in January. I'm excited because I'm hoping that I will have lost at least 50 pounds by then. I want to look good. This will be the 3rd wedding I'm in, and I've always felt like a stuffed sausage in the bridesmaid dresses. Hopefully, this time, it will be different. Plus, it's a black dress so even better! Do you think 50 pounds is realistic? I begin my pre op diet this Friday and am on it for 10 days. It seems the average is 20 pounds on the pre op. I have surgery on the 21st, so that gives me almost 2 months (the wedding is January 18th) to lose even more. I'm hoping to start exercising ASAP after the surgery to kick my weightloss up to over average. This is the first time I'm actually excited to be in a wedding. Haha.

I have the appointment with my primary care doctor in an hour to get the approval for surgery. Hopefully I'll be in and out. I really don't like him.

The only things I have left to do after today is my last nutrition class on Wednesday, start my pre op diet on Friday, go do that pre surgery stuff, then it's the main event! It's so hard to believe I've come this far! Can't wait to become healthier and happier with my new self!
