8 days and counting....

Apr 18, 2009

Okay, haven't updated profile in a while, so I guess now is just as good of a time if any.  My surgery is officially 8 days away.  I have been on the liquid diet a week and must admit, cheated a few times.  It's just been sooooo hard drinking liquids and eating yogurt all day. I don't eat jello or cottage cheese, so my list of can haves is mighty short.  I must add that the times I've cheated it been with protein like grilled chicken so maybe it's not all bad.  Anywho, at the start of my two week diet on Monday (13th), I weighed in at 340 lbs and hopefully I can lose between 10-15lb before surgery.  I'm torn between being nervous and excited, and nervous and excited all over again.  I will continue to pray and it helps to know that my surgeon, Dr. Dyer,  is a Christian and praying man as well.  What a relief.  Well wish me well and keep me in your thoughts and prayers, both for an uneventful surgery and recovery.  Much love!
