pre-op appointment: check!
Jan 04, 2013
So I've been on the liquid diet for almost three days now and I've already dropped a good 4 pounds. It's amazing how addicted we become to so many different things without realizing it. Just this week I've quit smoking, drinking, and pretty much eating (haha) all in one sitting. These protein shakes aren't all that bad, but I have been getting random cold sweats and hot flashes, surely it's all from withdrawals from sugar, caffeine, nicotine, alcohol, etc. it's all beginning to become so real now.
I have been cranky, losing sleep, moody, and all kinds of bothered, I even imagined eating my brother's burger from wendys whilst I sipped my delicious (insert sarcasm) protein shake; still, though, my high hopes and positive attitude have not been diminished. I may not have 100% agreement from some of the people in my life, but deep down I know I have their support when the times comes, and most importantly, I'm 100% on ME now. For once in my life, I am taking my own life into my own hands!!!
Today was my pre-op appointment, everything is set, payments are complete, last blood was drawn, and I should be getting a phonecall the 11th to set up a time for my surgery the 14th of January.
My last weight in is the 11th. As of this morning, I am at 209 lbs. I haven't been below 200 in almost a year now so I would love to start my surgery weight below 200!!! fingers crossed!
