November 18th anyone?

[Ldimples 73]

I struggled this weekends, it was really hard. I do better during the week because I'm at work and I'm very busy. To make things worse I have been sick. I just got finish telling myself you can do this, so I got up and got a Protein Drink. I want a bag of chips so bad right now. It is a mind thing. If I get to hungry, I have been eating eggs or broth with white chicken meat in it. In my house Sunday is Pasta night, this was the worse night yet. I love, no, I am addicted to pasta. ????. Not being able to eat pasta last night made me very depressed ????. It even made me rethink about having the procedure. I went to my room closed the door and I survived. 10 more days, seems so long. I have lost 15 pounds already.

I guess I am getting cold feet. I am about to go for my pre op testing and start my diet. Just a Lil scared I guess

I keep getting the pre surgery jitters and I haven't even started the liquid diet yet. I focus instead on all the things I want to do such as learning to ride a bike in the spring time, attend a baseball game without worrying about how uncomfortable I would be sitting, have the energy to *do* things again. I know I can do it. I lost 70 pounds on weight watchers and was able to keep it off for about 2 years. I have made a lot of healthy life choices such as giving up soda. My main weakness was not being able to stop after a reasonable plate at buffets and with food I love. This is a tool to help me with that.

I am Nov. 17th. Extremely excited but very nervous as well. What kind of fears or worry does everyone have? I have felt like I have been grieving food. Crazy or has anyone else?

I start my liquid diet tomorrow. I can already say I miss food and I already cut down what I eat. I went for pre op testing today and I love the people at the hospital

Today was supposed to be my day of enjoyment before I start the preop diet. Instead I had a Migraine all day and got physically sick. ..
