Thank Youse OH
I will have surgery on 12-04-07, I read the WLS board everyday learning the do’s, the don’ts, the why’s and the why not’s on preop and postop surgery. I am such a junk food junkie, that I am rarely hungry and when I do eat, I eat chips, tacos, all type of junk food, I have tried to change my eating habits the past few months.
These past two weeks I have realized I need to cut back on soda, drink mucho water, eat healthy food every two hours, make sure to eat and chew, do not drink when eating, get more protein. After 2 weeks, I lost 9 pounds and I now know that I can actually do this after surgery. Can I get an AMEN! Thanks for all the encouraging and uplifting support, I am not afraid to face this battle, as I know I have strength from many OH friends.

AMEN ~~ Great job!!! I too was a believer in practicing before the surgery. Then it doesn't seem like soooo much is changing because you've already grown used to it.
Congrats on your progress -- keep up the good work. Won't be long now!!! You have a lot to be thankful for this Thanksgiving!!!
Fitness is not about age or a size -- it's really about an attitude and life style!!!
