A few years ago I had my physisian recommend Bariatric surgury.. I debated however I ended up loosing the weight on my own.. Partially due to stress partially due to working next to a gym with very persistant co-workers.. however after loosing 50 lbs that I have gained back I am at the front door of surgury... Yesterday I got the call that I would have my surgury October 28th.. just 8 days away and I was to start my diet, a liquid diet.. no more than 30 grams of carbs and 70-90 grams of protien.. At first I felt like I wasn't going to make it... however now, only 2 days in, I am glad that I have the ability to have protien drinks, and I am CHOOSING this path.. I am not starving because I have no food or money, in fact it is because I have an abundance of food that I am at this point.. I am not going to blame my weight on anything but myself.. I could have been working out, I could have been counting the carbs and calories, I could have said no to my beloved whole milk and ice cream... HOWEVER I didn't. I want to be healthy for my daughter, for my future grandchildren.. For myself!
SO now after I have done psych evaluations, lab works, classes, and seminars I am finally one week out from surgury.. the second day into my liquid diet.. and ready to reclaim my life and revamp my kitchen!!
