I'm on my way!!
Aug 18, 2009
Well, I just got back from my pre-surgical visit and I'm on my way to the "losers bench", believe it or not I was the same weight from my last appointment, I weighed in at 304 and during the next 2 weeks I expect to lose 14 pounds because of the liquid diet, so I guess the goal is to get down to 290 the day of surgery, the more I lose, the better. Like always, I'm really anxious to get going. I cannot thank God enough for giving me this opportunity to improve my life. Well, keep me in your thoughts and prayers!!!

Goodbye!!!
Aug 16, 2009
I've been having a lot of "goodbye" moments with some food, my 2 week liquid diet starts on August 19th and I think that's my issue. I guess the mental concept that I won't be able to then so I better do it now kicked in and I'll probably be a couple pounds up from my last appointment when I weigh in on August the 18th. Has any body else experienced this and does any one think that its unusual or is it actually really common that a patient about to have a life altering surgery would think like this? Does any body think my doctors will have a problem with a couple pound weight gain right before the 2 week liquid diet. I'd appreciate any comments.. Thanks!!!!!

I just got back!!!
Jul 22, 2009
Well, I just got back from a weekend vacation down in Ocean City, Maryland. I had fun but it wasn't quite what I had expected it to be. I had my "last Supper" at the Bonfire down there and boy, I really enjoyed that! Now it's time to stop slacking off and get back into the swing of things. I need to lose 12 pounds by my next appointment on July 29th, I'm getting weighed in and my last weigh in was 1 and a half months ago and I'm up 12 pounds so that means strictly liquid diet and walking everyday till then. I have been really lazy lately and really bad with watching with whats going in my mouth. I'm going to try really hard to get where I wanna be, but I know everyone has there rough spots, So wish me luck and pray that I'll make it!!! I only have 1 month and 2 weeks left till surgery!! G2G!!!!

I am an eager beaver!!
Jul 05, 2009
I'm very eager for the next two months to go by very quickly, September 2nd can not come soon enough. I've been trying to do the liquid diet one day and solid normal (but still fat free and sugar free) diet the next day. I have a weigh in appointment on July 7th. I have to get weighed in monthly and check in with the nutritionist because that's protocol for my insurance. I think I might be up 2 or 3 pounds from my last appointment but my fiance says it looks like I lost weight. I've been trying to walk 1 mile a day but the last week has been crazy. I want to start fresh so bad it makes waiting for the surgery even harder!! I've started the WLS program 9 months ago and I've been patient now it's less than 2 months away and I've become impatient! I'll be okay it's just that I want to be on the losers bench soooo.... bad!!!! lol.. well gotta go to bed, Goodnight friends!!!
