Proud of myself

I made through my sister birthday party, with out eating. They had Bar B Q with the trimmings, cake and peach cobbler etc. I am mentally ready to change my life, I know in the beginning it's easy considering this is day 1 on shakes. Step by step, day by day that's what it's going to take for me to lose 165lbs. Have a wonderful evening everyone!!

Best of luck! Ultimately you'll find that the BBQ itself fits well in your new lifestyle.

You should be proud of yourself! The liquid pre-op diet is hard. It would have been easy for you to think "oh, what's one day" and decide to start tomorrow. It seems like a lot of people cheat on the pre op diet. For my part, I decided if that I cheated on the pre-op diet, then I was not ready for the rigors and changes ahead. That kept me going. Sounds like it could help you, too. More power to you!
