Default Surgery Thursday

So far I am down 23 1/2 lbs in 3 weeks on the being sick and then all liquid diet. People are starting to notice and have asked if I already had surgery.

I am just wanting Thursday to get here and get this over with so I can start my new life.

Yesterday I went out with a friend to a concert and I was looking for something to wear and it struck me that nothing in there will fit in the next 2 months. WoW

I am on a all liquid diet, which includes cream soup and sugar free pudding, jello, pop/fudgescicles. However tomorrow I start on all clear liquids at noon till 9pm the night before surgery.

I nearly murdered someone today for their bacon. Really! It made me completely drool from the smell alone. But I didn't have any!!

Anyway just got home from the hospital for the pre-op blood work and chest xray. I am now doing a huge amount of laundry so I can come home to nothing to do. Cleaning tomorrow while I do the "cleanse".

LOL!!!! WHAT an image, Sindurella!! housecleaning during the , um, preop bowel prep!!!!

sounds like you're doing GREAT. and don't worry about the bacon - chances are that after the surgery, you won't want it. but YOU WILL GET IT BACK - not immediately - but within a year, you'll be able to enjoy A PIECE of bacon if you want it. i promise you.

it is all over now and you can just recover and continue on your path to "onederland". I am so desperate to be in "onederland" it has been a long time since I was in the one hundreds for weight. Unless you count in kilo's which I do not. My mini goal is onederland, my main goal is 135lbs
