    It's time.

    I don't know what to do first!

    The same thing happened to me, got a call two weeks before surgery just after things started opening after covid. It got postponed two months. It'll never be the perfect time. Go get it done. Things will work out. All you need to get started are protein drinks and water.

    Getting in enough protein

    like the above poster, I ended up having to add protein powder to various things, too.

    First thing Iโ€™d suggest- BREATHE! You can do this. Just make sure you have everything you need for your pre-op diet and donโ€™t overly stress yourself. The rest will work itself out.

    Getting Ready for Surgery

    +1 for the chapstick i also brought a bottle of biotin spray for the unbelievably sore/dry throat that i woke up with after the surgery. (everything else I brought was left untouched in my overnight bag...well except my phone)

    Stall are quite common anywhere from 3 to 6 weeks out, and again many times as you progress through the first year. Assuming you are following the post op guidelines set by your surgeon or dietician you will be fine, weight loss will catch up again soon. It's a good time to set some non scale goals to focus on. If you are concerne though you may want to check in with your dietician.

    Portioning out food

    I think that generally liquids should be measured by volume and solids by weight. It kinda makes me think about all the times I used a measuring cup for flour/ sugar versus the Great British Baking Show weighs those items.

    Before and after. Couple close coaching friends getting ready to do the same thing. Very fortunate that I had good insurance. Had to do the 6 month wait (visit and class once a month) but it was worth it. I was a walking heart attack waiting to happen on Friday nights in the fall. So much energy and adrenaline go into a Friday night.

    Halloween Costume..

    I havenโ€™t tried on a costume in years, mainly because I could never fit anything. For some reason this one is so symbolic to me. I wanted the girls to dress up in a incredible costume but they had other ideas of what they wanted to be this year. Maybe next year ๐Ÿ˜‚ . . Do we like it ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿฝ or NO ๐Ÿ‘Ž๐Ÿฝ . .
