Well, one week to go!

My surgery is one week from tomorrow! I am doing well on the liquid protein diet they have me on. I do get to eat one meal a day, plus 4 protein drinks. I have lost about ten pounds. The bad thing was that I injured my back this past week, so I have not been able to exercise and be as active as I like. The good thing is that my back is improving everyday, and I should be o.k. for surgery. I went back to work today, after being off since May. I will work a week, then be off for hopefully no more than two weeks. It is nice to know that I will never be my highest weight again!!! (That was 9 years ago, but almost hit it again this summer.) I'm sorry I could not get to Ft. Lauderdale this past weekend. It would have been fun to meet everyone. Hopefully we can all get together in the future. Keep up the good work and the positive attitudes! Your support means alot to each one of us here. Sheryl

Sheryl, Good luck on your surgery. You'll be on the losing side before you know it! You'll have to plan to attend the next OH conference in FL. I'm hoping they will schedule another one next summer. Good luck on your journey! Vickie J.

Hi Sheryl! I am glad to hear of your improvements. Things will be back to normal before long. Hang in there! This journey is amazing and you will be on the loosing side so soon! Gail
