Consider me dated...

[Jonathan 5]

I got my date today: Monday, January 31st!

3 1/2 weeks... what did you all do to pass the days from the time you found out your date and the day it arrived?

I was hoping for something a little sooner, but I'm just glad there's finally a definite date!

Get started walking or working out. Build up your muscles if you can before the surgery. Start practicing eating with no drink until 1-2hrs afterward. Stock up your cupboards with broth, Soups, Protein Drinks, etc. Start a list of all the things you hope to do once you've lost enough weight to be healthy and active again. Look only forward.. Congrats on your date!!

Jonathan, I'm in the same boat you're in. My date is January 27th. I was hoping for something sooner too. I have done some shopping for the broth and mushy food. I've started my preop diet already. It's difficult for me, because my meal times aren't always the same. I've got a crazy job that calls for all different hours. Before, I know it, I've worked 15 hours with no food, and then I'm starving, eat the whole Frickin' kitchen, shower and go to bed. (the WORST thing I could do, I know) Guess, I need to do some working out too!

Get in the habit of drinking tons of Water, but not w/meals or one hour afterwards. Wear your favorite clothes, before they're forever too big. Yeah!
