Just over a week out!

And i'm down 20 pounds!! That includes the 5 I lost on my brief stint with Optifast.

I feel so great!! I'm not on diabetic medication, i'm sleeping so well and i'm just plain happy! I love how much I don't really care about what other people are eating. I do get the, "darn, I can't have that" feeling, but it goes away so fast. I assume that this feeling will go away, but for now i'm basking in the glow that is my new relationship with food.

I start the pureed diet on Wednesday, and I am looking forward to having some fish and sweet potato mashed up.

Surgery March 23/2011. Completed three full marathons and two half marathons, two half Ironman distances. Completed my first Full Ironman distance (4 km swim, 180 km bike, 42.2 km (full marathon) run) in Muskoka August 30/2015. Next Ironman Lake Placid July 23/2017!

Glad to hear the report from your honeymoon

I am looking forward to dropping medication post-surgery as well. I already take vitamins, so that will not be a problem :)

Congrats ! Glad to hear things are going so well.

Yay! I'm so glad you are doing well. I miss ya! Feels like I haven't seen you in forever. Chili is also a great purreed. Wendy's is better nutritionally, than Timmies, and always a great "on the go" type of meal!

Awesome news! Thank you for sharing.
My turn is Monday and I must say the nerves are getting the best of me today.
Does anyone know how long the surgery takes?
