Good evening everyone I hope that your week is going well, I go to work everyday smiling because I know that i am one more day until surgery on May 5, counting the days and smiling along the way.

I would let them know that you are having surgery and they will excuse you.

I agree with the above statements that I would hold my head high and keep my eye on the prize even if they never understand why you want this surgery which would be to be healthy. I wish you the best of luck and congrats on your choice to be healthy.

Jdillon congrats I like your attitude and the way you count, I have 5 weeks and counting.

Congrats I am so happy for you , wishing you a speedy recovery.

That is so great congrats, keep up the great job.

Congrats , I am so happy that you were approved so fast your almost there, i am sure these few days will fly back.

Hi I purchased the chicken unjury, I hope everyone day is hoping great.

Mickey 29 congrats on your choice to be healthy, I would do all the house cleaning and washing and make some dinners and freeze them for later. That way you are not stress about what the kids are hoping to eat you can just pop it in the oven to warm.

Why not use Biotene toothpaste

Hi I went to two different surgeons , I choose the second surgeon because the first surgeon was nice but his staff was unprofessional as well as did not return telephone calls in so timely manner. Your gut will tell you good luck .

Very informative thank you for sharing .

It's ok I stock up on unjury flavored chicken, premier protein shakes, sugar free jello, sugar free Popsicle .

Swedishfish1020 what about adding a lemon slice or lime, or a little bit of crystal light. I bought a 74.4 oz water jug and I just sip on that all day that seems to help me.

Bfodal welcome and congrats on your choice to be healthy this is an exciting time for us all . I Aldo want to mentioned I have been journaling and this has help me deal with stress so great deal and I encourage everyone to give it a try. I look forward to sharing ideas and reading everyone's post.

Kraeok24 I have decided on premere protein shakes and grape frost isopure, I also bought the collapsible measuring cups, and I cup baby serving bowls with the freezer insulate . A food scale, and I stocking up on sugar free pop sickles and jello . I plan on doing all the washing and house cleaning as well. I have made a big calender to start counting down the 35 days I have until surgery . }

Good morning everyone, I hope everyone's day is going well, doing the count down to surgery only 35 days before surgery.

Kraeok24 hello and congrats, I am counting down the days a well we got this , I can't wait have you began trying out any protein shakes or have done aunt shopping .

Ryany first let me say congrats on your choice to be healthy, although your brother is hating because he just may be upset that you can do this as well as have the courage to go through with this. Take one day at a time perhaps once he sees how dedicated you are and the changes that you are making he may start looking into other alternatives to get healthy as well. Good luck.

Welcome I am sure you are going to meet some great people here, I know because I have, congrats on your choice to be healthy.

Erin 18 I am sorry that you feel so discourage and feel that your family does not support your choice to be healthy, remember this is your choice to be healthy not theirs , you must make the choice to be healthy and live for you, I am sure your family wants you t live and be healthy, perhaps they do not understand your struggles. Your first priority is to yourself, I would suggest you pursue your choice to be healthy as well as perhaps talk to a therapist to get support for your life changing decision . Take one day at a time but at the end you have to do what is best for you not your family. I wish you the best.
