Tanette I just got my surgery date. I started in March. I spent the first month making poor choices. I thought I could wait for the "miracle" surgery to come. I had an awesome nutritionalist that said "here is a list of items that you need to do to be successful after surgery, just pick one item to work on today" I thought I was so clever I picked drinking 64 oz of Water a day. That way I could still eat. LOL well that much water sure cut down the amount I ate. The next time I picked chewing my found to liquid consistency. Hmm I still get to eat what I want. Well after chewing for so long I cut down the amount of the smaller amounts I was already eating. Then I picked increasing my Protein etc.
The point is that I chose which items to start with. I messed up often at first but I am close to my surgery date and I feel like a success already.
Just pick one thing, now, that will make you successful after surgery that way your body and your mind won't be so stressed when that surgery day comes for you.
You don't need to be perfect just a human who wants to become healthy.
Best of luck for your wonderful new future!!!
