Nickel 0 Posted November 6, 2010 I had my pre-op appointments this week and started my 2 week diet Wednesday. I don't know if I am excited, nervous, calm, crazy or what. The diet is tough but now that I have a couple of days under my belt I know I can do it. I lost 4 pounds in those first few days, so that is some motivation in and of itself. I have all the pre-op instructions to review and my shopping for this diet as well as most of what I need for the first week or 2 is done. I ordered an elliptical machine (to supplement my gym membership) and it arrived today so I can start getting in more cardio on the busy days where I just can't get to the gym. So, 11/17 is the day! The next step in my journey is so close and I just can't wait to get started. :eek: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
