One week to go!!!!

[shasta 0]

One week from tomorrow I will be going under, and coming out a different person! I admit, these last two weeks of liquid diet, and sabatoging friends has been a struggle. But I keep coming on here, and reading the wonderful posts and stories, and it keeps me going!! Plus I have the greatest boyfriend who is quitting smoking because I did. He also won't eat at the house so as not to tempt me with the chewy goodness of bad food!!

My sabatoging friends are coming around. I think they realize that I won't "die on the table". They are all just super jealous, and now they are going to have to be the ones to keep up with me!!!

It's amazing, the giving up smoking, diet pop, and the Vitamins they have me on, already make me feel better than I have in years. I can't imagine what I will feel like a few months from now!!!

Look out tummy!! One more week and you will probably be living in some jar on someone's desk!!! Mwah-ha-ha:sneaky2:

Thanks girls!! I actually feel really great!! But I ain't gonna lie....the liquid diet is a killer! But I flavor my plain yogurt with my protien powder, and it's not half bad, but can only have it in moderation! But I did get lucky finding a tasty powder!!! It's pretty pathetic, but I look foward to chewing my Vitamins everyday just for the chewing!!!!! But I would have given in, if not for going back and reading all the threads in here. That and my diet info for after the surgery. Kind of keeps me motivated!!

Coachkk--it gets better after about 3 days. The "starving" sensation does go. I admit, the first day was the biggest struggle. I ate a hoho & a chunk of my daughter's girl cheese because I didn't think I was gonna make it on the broth! But my dr lets me have V-8, and that is definately a life saver!!! Plus, my friends at work say my face already looks thinner!!

I am super excited! It's all I talk about. I'm not ashamed I'm having it done, I want my friends and family to know what I'm going through. That I just couldn't do it on my own, and needed a form of permanent willpower!!!!!

(Now, how do I get my ticker to stay on here???)

Hi Shasta,

Congratulations and best wishes on your surgery next week!

Go to Graphical Tickers and Trackers: Weight Loss, Trying To Conceive, Pregnancy... and go through the steps. Afterwards it will give you code to copy and paste..you will go to your user cp here and click on edit signature on the left hand side. Paste that code there.

Good luck for next week!

Sounds like you have a fab bloke there - after all the years of dieting I think one of the hardest for me is seeing other people eat in front of me....so I can applaud his not eating in front of you, and the comments like 'Go on, one won't hurt'......

I think I shall hole myself up when I get to do my pre op diet!!
