Two days and counting!!

I am still struggling trying to get the 10 pounds off that I need to take off before my surgery. If you go by my scale at home and by my top weight I have taken 11 pounds off... but my doctor's scale and starting weight is a different story. I was going to go weigh in this morning at his office, but the freeway was a mess and the nurse and I decided to go ahead and do it tomorrow... I have resorted to protein drinks. I think yesterday I consumed 400 calories all day, maybe if I do that again today, I will be down a couple more pounds tomorrow for the last visit with the scale before surgery.

Seeing that in the last 20 days, I have eaten one 1 slice of bread, 1 scoop of sugar-free ice cream, a little bit of fruit on a salad, and a couple bites of cranberry sauce with my turkey, I am starting to look at food in a whole new way. I want foods that are bad for me, but at the same time I have learned to say NO.... That is a major accomplishment.

I'm getting closer to the crest of the hill where I will be starting this new journey!!!!
