I have passed this way before.

Nov 19, 2011

So, I meet with the weight loss nurse for the first time in 3 days.  But I have been faithful with my lunch dates at the YMCA.  Eliptical 3 days a week for 32 minutes.  Bike 1 day, 32 minutes. And my treat, swimming on Fridays!  I printed off the food guidlines for post op surgery and have tried my best to live (eat) from the "18 months and Beyond" meal plan.  Now my delema, I have lost over 10 lbs!  This doesn't mean that I can do this on my own.  Sorry, but I know myself too well.  So, can I lose too much weight before seeing the nurse?  The only thing that's keeping me honest is the seriousness of the journey I am setting out on.  If I give up on surgery, I know that I will give up on the eating plan at some point.  I could so easily put the 10 lbs back on, but I don't want to!  I want to be healthy, eat less and much slower.  I have apnea, so that should help, but if I get too good at this, might it hurt my chances for approval?
