Colour me happy! (and Hi MIM)!

I went to my 3 week pre-op appointment today. Last time I was there (May 8) you may recall that I had indulged in too many "last suppers" and gained 5 lbs. Because of this gain (even though I was still down 10!) my surgery was postponed. Last week (I think!) I got my new date, July 24th so today was time for me to prove that I am serious. The hospital scales showed me down 16 lbs (!!!) at 250. I was thrilled but a little worried as my home scales show 251 and they were 5 lbs LESS than the hospital last time. I hope the scales at the "H" are right! What does this mean? I have 3 weeks 'til surgery and now have to follow 1200 calories for the next 3 weeks. The nurse said she would LIKE to see me lose another 5-6 lbs in that time but if not (I asked "What if I only lose 3?") I'll be ok. I'm so happy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I got to meet MIM while I was there and that was so cool Mim, I have a feeling we're going to be great friends!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy... I am so happy for you!! You know what? I didn't even get weighed on the day of my surgery at all... hmmmm wonder if I'm the only one... I can't wait till you finally get your surgery and then you can join me in the loser group!! wooo hooooo... Don't be nervous at all, everything will be awesome, just wait and see!!!

I am sooooooooooooooooo excited and I can't wait to join you on the loser's bench

I didn't get weighed on my day of surgery either or at all even while in the hospital! I thought that was a bit odd..It's funny the day of the surgery Dr. Beausoleil came out asked me if I had any questions and I was so prepared for this day all I asked was if I could still go to Toronto in 3 weeks time for my vacation..was happy when he said yes if everything goes well.. So I did and had a blast!

Hi krista, I thought I recognized you from your picture on here.I was in the waiting room just outside lise's door.I had my last weigh in today.(Thank god!)I lost another 8.5 lbs.My surgery is scheduled for next Tuesday. Congrats on your weight loss.That's awesome. I can't wait till we can talk about post-op instead of pre-op! Donna Weir

Alirght Donna!!! Good luck with your surgery.. it is going to be nice to have other people to talk to about their journey's too!!!

G'day Krista! You are awesome, I was so happy to see you. I am so relieved to have yesterday over with and that things went as it should. I was extremely worried (and prayed all the way to Moncton) now I am pumped to do well till next weigh in on the 17th. My appointment is at 11:30. Think thin...

I am at 11:45 - wanna do lunch? (We can be sure we're both staying on track!)

Hey there Krista, I have a follow up appointment with Dr. B on the 25th, would you mind if I tried to come and find you and say hi?? I would love to meet you and see that you are alright and everything went well for you!!! Angela
