Less than a month til surgery...

[mirandameow 4]

Aloha all,

My gastric bypass surgery is scheduled for April 21, 2014. I've done such a good job logging my food and making healthy eating choices since December when I joined my hospitals program, but since actually scheduling my surgery a week ago though I've found it so hard to avoid my old pitfalls. Perhaps now I have, "this is my last chance" mentality- but it is ruining all the work I've done so far. I have had nightmares about gaining weight and then denying me the day if my surgery because of it. This has been a logistic nightmare to plan because I'm a teacher and have to take so much time off work. I would love some encouraging words, stories or tips to get me through my last 29 days before surgery.

Thanks all!

Just want to point out that this was posted in the lap band forum, you might get more responses over on the gastric bypass forum. Not that we don't all love each other, lol. It sounds like you're doing a great job and have your mind in the right place. Best wishes for your surgery and future success!
