Time to move on and try my hardest not to do this again. My surgery date is still over 2 weeks away, I hope I can stay on the liquid diet until then.
On the bright side, DH, the boys and I went to St Augustine and walked for a couple hours, I had to stroll my to youngest sons, so hopefully that helped burn off some of the calories! I also checked for ketones this morning and they were still very high!

I can't wait to go to disney and walk the 10-15 miles a day without feeling like I got hit by a truck!
I can't wait to ride all of the rides without worrying about my fat butt fitting into the seat.

OK, I am going in for surgery January 19Th.... Wooo Hoooo 
I am SOO excited if you all can not already tell. But, I have a question... The past couple of days, I have had this ridiculous amount of energy
... getting ready for surgery. I have managed to...
1. paint my bathroom.
2. re arrange my living room
3. reorganize my kitchen (food) cabinets
4. reorganize my cabinets with all my dishes in them
5. Get rid of any lingering laundry in the basement
6. Go out and buy 3 pairs of new pajamas and slippers
7. Go out and buy a timer, thanks to someones suggestion and 3 oz disposable cups.
8. Went out and bought Birthday, baby and anniversary cards for all those people who will celebrate while I am recovering.
9. And even went out and bought my sons Valentines and Valentines candy for school!!!
As if that is not enough, there are other things too.
I was just wondering, Has anyone else gotten like this? I know I am a prepared person, but my goodness! I am just so excited I think I can't stand it!
When I feel down in the dumps I come on this website and read through things. I look at before and after pictures and some make me cry but for all of this I am so appreciative. To all of you out there post op, your amazing!!!!!
Take care everyone!!! Happy New Year
XOXOXOX Charlotte
