A good friend of mine told me about this website and it has inspired me so much.  I just got on line to this website earlier today and was so excited to set my page up and to share my story and the start of my new journey.  I just got approved for surgery yesterday, March 24, 2011.  I will be having surgery on May 9, 2011.  I currently have had 5 1/2 weeks without any carbonated beverages.  I was a Diet Pepsi, Diet Coke and Diet Root Beer drinker.  I had to have my diet sodas everyday with lemon.  This has been a great accomplishment for me.  The first week was very hard, but after that it was not difficult.  Instead I am drinking Ice Tea and Water, Water and Water.  I have tried to work on not drinking anything 30 min before I eat and waiting 30 min after eating----this on the other hand is very difficult and started trying to do this since March 10, 2011 and not able to master this.  I have only made it through one meal since this date.  It is also harder than giving up soda for me.  I am excited to browse around this website more and look at more of many, many, many success stories.  You all have motivated me and inspired me more than you will ever know.  I hope one day I can inspire and touch someones life like many of you have for me in just one day.
