Well hi there to everyone. Some of you may know me, some of you may not. Either way, most of you don't know about what I have been doing, and what I'm about to do.
I have my Gastric Sleeve surgery scheduled for Monday, July 2, 2013. I made the decision last fall after failing AGAIN to lose the weight. I have thought about it for years. In January I went to my first appointment at Kaiser, and was referred to the program. After going to twelve weeks of classes, and learning A LOT, I was referred to the surgeon which took another 2-3 weeks. Well, that was last Tuesday. He asked that I try to lose an additional 14 lbs. before the surgery date (I'd already lost 26). He also said that within that <3weeks I do 2 weeks of his liquid diet. So, my diet starting yesterday, consists of just protein shakes, water, crystal light, sugar free Jell-O, broth, and then one egg and one cheese stick a day. Whoooo Hooooo! Right?! NOOOOOOOOOOO. It is HARD!! I've heard the first 3 days are the worst though, so I'm hanging in there :)
