I AM GOING MAY 4TH ALSO...NERVOUS AND HUNGRY (medifast) LOL

I am going for my PATS April 20th and am still doing the medifast diet...I have cheated and eaten lettuce...and paper....just kidding on the paper. The one thing I have is the yard work to keep me busy and keep me active. I have done 14 hours in the last two days while the sun is shining. It also helps with stress as I have a large italian family and being unvailable is sometimes a good thing. Can't wait to be on the road to even better health and smaller sizes! Sharon

First off what is Medifast??? congrads on your date. Lorraine

Hi Lorraine, Medifast is a high protein, low calorie shake....My Surgeons require that we lose 10 percent of our weight first by going on a strict medifast diet of 5 shakes a day and lots of water and no food. I have lost 23 lbs in the last 4 weeks and have about 8 or 9 to go. Now, you are probably asking ..Is this possible? No food? Yes it is...but I am not perfect with it...I have eaten...not often..but to be perfectly honest, I have. But I already feel the effects of almost 25 pounds being gone! So, you dont have to do medifast first? What are your pre surgery requirments? May 4th is around the corner....soon we will be living in a "smaller" world. :0)

May 4 th for me too!!! I have been in the wait for 3 long years for this. good luck see ya on the smaller side Wendy

Good luck to you too Wendy!!! And we will be on the smaller side LOL....I like that...God Bless. Sharon
