loseitsoon 157 Posted December 23, 2012 Help, I start my pre diet Dec 26 and right now I can't stop eating! I've got to get back on track but it's really hard at Christmas time. 1 lissa2270 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fonally 108 Posted December 23, 2012 Mistimed I go to LVH but the surgeon doesn't take my insurance! Can you believe it? And to the girl that has to go on ore op diet Dec 26 just relax and do it. I start mine tomorrow and I will not cheat because this has to be a permenant change so on the day you have to start think of it as practice for the hospital. I've read on here if you practice eating slow not drinking and eating at same time etc it is easier after surgery. We can and will do this! 1 Tbaby reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lisha32704 10 Posted December 26, 2012 January 16th here. Starting to get a little nervous. Just downloaded myfitnesspal and hoping to lose a little before surgery. That's a great app. I am also trying to loose a few before my surgery january 23rd. Considering I have put on over 10 since I forst met with my surgeon I'm thinking it might be a good idea!
