I have a question...

My surgery is 01/11/05. I still have 2lbs to loose or my surgery will be rescheduled. Anyone have any suggestions on how to loose it quick?

Kelly, Just wanted to send a quick note of encouragement. I know you can lose those 2 pounds in the next week. I have been having a few wierd health things going on in the past week. I'm going to my PCP this morning just to double check with him to make sure my assesment of things are correct. First of all, with my surgery scheduled for next week I'm nervous as heck and have been grinding my teeth at night - resulting in horrible tension headaches and very sore neck/jaw. Secondly, my surgeon had a start iron supplements 3 weeks prior to surgery. I was fine for a week, but they are not settling well at ALL with my stomach. As a result I have lost 5 pounds in the past week or so because I've switched many of my meals during the day to a liquid dietary shake so I will not feel as sick. I'm using Alba with vanilla soy milk and it is yummy. Good luck to you - I don't know if you are on a liquid diet or not, but it has really helped me. My surgeon did not put me on any weight loss requirements but just eating very little through the day and eating a sensible dinner has made the pound melt away. Good luck!! Two pounds in the next week is a very doable goal and it sounds like you are right on target!
