This is Me.

This is the story of my Weight Loss Surgery, namely the Vertical Gastric Sleeve. When I started this journey, I really wanted someone to tell me exactly what to expect, what to eat, what to do, etc, so I decided to chronicle my OWN journey.....to be able to look back on it, but also to possibly help someone else about to start theirs.

Pre-op Diet: Day 2

So I survived the first day.  I was SO proud of myself.  Today wasn't bad either.  I'm actually in a very good mood.  Could be because I'm off on Monday.  And my very best friend Tricia and I are taking our 12 year old boys to a water park this weekend.  And you know what?  I'm getting into my swimsuit and I don't care WHAT I look like.  Because I will never look like this again.  I'm going to enjoy myself, which I rarely do because I'm so dang worried what I look like.  I was a little stressed about 'what I would eat', but Tricia's mom had her surgery about 6 weeks ago and she helped her a lot, so she'll be able to help me too.  I don't want to be one of those "I need my chicken grilled with no butter.  NO BUTTER.  Just slap it on the grill with nothing else and I'll choke it down, don't you worry."  But if I have to, you bet I will.  Gotta get that liver into shape.  I plan to take my breakfast and protein shake stuff with me, then I'll get some sort of grilled meat and steamed veggies wherever we wind up.  I think I could even do a grilled chicken sandwich with no bun and no condiments, if I get desperate.  Or perhaps another shake?
