I pray to God every morning upon waking and every night before going to sleep to help me to sustain and maintain this level of energy and excitement for my good and HIS GLORY!!!! He says "You have not, because you ask not," so I ask, every day usually many times a day!!! He may get tired of me soon! LOL !!!

Still pre-op
Apr 21, 2009
I just went to a pre-op seminar on Thurs. 4/16/09. Just starting process. I'm not 100% that this is what I want yet. I put my self on a liquid protein diet for 2 of my 3 daily meals. I'm eating a small lite lunch and drinking lots of lemon water with sweet & low!!! Eating the lemons too, as I've heard they are great to break down stomach fat!! I started dieting on Friday, 4/17/09 and as of Tues .4/21 am I've lost 10 lbs!!! YEA I'm still continuing the approval process and exams but if I can stick to this protein deit for the 4 - 6 months they say the surgery might take, I may just change my mind and continue with the diet!!! 10 lbs in 5 days is an awesome start!!! Who know, maybe just going to the seminair and hearing all of the 'what ifs' will keep me on the straight and narrow!!!!! If not hopefully I'll have the approval/RNY to fall back on!!! Hey it can't hurt to try!!
