2 Days Until I Begin The New Me

[Texarkolina 201]

I have 2 days until I start the pre-op diet. I am considering the 1st day of the diet as day 1 of the new me. I am going to measure, weigh, and take pictures in a couple of outfits and from different angles so that I have something to look back on "where I was" in case of a stall and/or other frustration. Any other suggestions?

hey Tex

you are on the right trail

taking all your measurments from the start, so you can compare to your newer measurements as time passes. taking pictures before and after.

having a blog is also great. keeping records of your daily activities starting now, to the hospital, and how you are doing daily with foods.

btw - all great things said above, i never did any of them-i wish i had

good luck on your pending surgery

I record my weight every Monday. Every 4 weeks I take pics and do my measurements. I'm a big digital scrapbooker and am documenting this stuff in scrapbook style. I intend to put make it into a hard back book when I reach goal.

I also have a blog. It started out as a way for me to document my journey for me. I've put useful information in there though that can help people who are early in their journey. Personally, I'd rather over document my journey than under document it.

Best of luck in your "new" life.
