Hi, there! Welcome to the Board! I'm not too far from you, in North Stafford, and actually lived in Montclair for many years. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to get in touch. In the meantime, the others have had some wonderful suggestions on the pre-op weight loss. Best of luck! :)

Welcome to your new life, MerMer! Welcome to the boards and I hope that we can be here with all the support you need.
Keep us posted on your progress as a pre-op. Include cutting back on sugars and sodas. Also increase exercise and drink lots of water.

Welcome to the board, The others have given you great advice on trying to eat correcty and stopping sodas etc

I would also recomment hat you try and stop drinking with your meals now and get into the habit of not drinking before and after your meals for 30 minutes to help keep you feeling full.... that took a bit of getting used to for and I started it beforehand....

Good luck and keep us posted........
