Three Weeks Today!

Hi all! I am having my surgery 3 weeks from today. I have to say the time is flying by. I haven't had much anxiety over the surgery. I am trying to tie up everything at work and make sure that I can leave and not think about work once I leave! I am more than ready for the surgery and I am trying to lose the ten pounds that the doctor asked me to lose. It is a tough battle when I think that I might not be able to eat some of my favourties again. I am up two pounds down three...and so on. I will am going to go on protien shakes for breakfast and eat really watch my weight the next three weeks. Time to take things seriously! Best of luck to everyone. Jen S.

Congrats Jen! My surgery is on the 29th...we're close together! I know what you mean...I am more than ready for this surgery to happen. Getting very anxious. I'm also in the middle of trying to lose the last of my required pre-op weight. I have resorted to a total liquid diet. The drinks the NUT gave me are FOUL. Bleh. But it seems to be working. I did Slimfast for about three weeks before the liquid and that actually did work. It tastes good and does keep you full for a while. Good Luck with your weight loss! Kathy

Jen, Good Luck with your surgery and hope you have a speedy recovery!! ~~Betsy

Hi Jen, Good luck!!!! The nitro-tech shakes are good. I have been on a 2 week liquid diet and they have tasted the best so far. Kelly
