First meeting with dietician tomorrow

Oct 07, 2014

Tomorrow I see the NUT for the first time.  (Love the abbreviation).  I've been having a lot of "last meals," aka "pints of ice cream."  I've felt sick for a week.  Even though I'm hoping for a surgery date mid December, I'm doing exactly what the dietician tell me to do after tomorrow.  My true weight-loss journey is beginning.  I'm afraid I'll fail.  I guess because I've failed so many times before.  But there was a lot of prayer that went into this decision.  So I'm counting on God to get me through.  I'd like to lose 27 pounds pre-op.  That's 10% of my current weight.  I think if I can be successful pre-op, I can be successful post-op. 

One change I've already made is exercise.  I've just decided it's not optional.  It has to happen.  Five days a week for at least 20 minutes.  That's where I am currently, but of course as time goes on I'll up the minutes.

Our school pictures came yesterday.  So this is my official before picture.
