12 pounds in 13 days, 5 days left.

I saw the dietitian today and am happy to report that, despite my TOM, I've lost 12 pounds since the last time I weighed 13 days ago.  I have 5 full days left until surgery.  I feel so ready, but also like I have so much to do!  I am worried about my kiddos, but so excited to start being more involved in playing with them and actually showing them a healthier lifestyle that includes daily exercise and healthier eating.

That being said, I've already decided my first meal will be refried beans with melted cheese, red sauce and a tiny dollop of greek yogurt.

I can't find greek yogurt, but I agree with everything you said.l I'm starting laundry now, trying to get it done so hubby doesn't have to worry about it for a couple of days. I haven't even started a list to take with me but I'm trying not to over do since I have to pay for each luggage I take with me.

I can't believe our time has come!

That is so cool that you lost 12 pounds already. You have a head start on some of us.

I had no choice in the matter.  I'm really getting cranky about liquids at this point.  7 more Impact Recovery Drinks and 3 more protein shakes of my choosing until surgery.  10 more.  I can do this, but it's gonna be a long weekend.
