Pre-Op Day 4

4 days into my pre-op diet and I haven't followed it correctly once. I suck. I don't want to do it at all, I'm just want to throw a huge hissy fit and stomp my feet.

18 days until my surgery, I need this to go fast!

Denial

Today starts my 3 week pre-op diet and I'm in denial about it. I don't want to do it!

It's not to bad - 3 shakes, 2 fruits and a salad with protein. It's much better than an all liquid diet, but I like variety and snacking. It's crazy to think that I can't eat anything except those things for the next 21 days. Then when I'm done with that, I will have my surgery, eek! Am I ready for this?

Rewards

I think rewards are a great motivator, so I've come up with a list of rewards for myself.

Pounds lost                     Reward
     25                         New haircut/color
     50                             Massage
     75                         Shopping Spree (at the thrifts store)
    100                        Trip to theme park

That's what I've got thus far, we shall see if I need to make more depending on motivation or because I've lost more than 100lbs. I would ultimately like to lose 120-150 lbs, but let's get to 100 first and then go from there.

I'm moving!

And so is the scale! We have gone to the pool a few times this week and last, so I've been taking that chance to move my butt. I've been taking the weights and doing some moves I know from aqua aerobics, along with holding on to the side and kicking my legs for 5 minutes.

According to my scale, I've lost 9 pounds compared to my Dr.'s scale. But who the heck knows what it will say on Thursday, at my appointment.

Lastly, I've joined a gym. Crazy will be going to preschool two days a week for a few hours, so I'm going to take that child free time to work on myself. I'm going to do that twice a week and aqua aerobics twice a week also, if hubby is willing to watch Crazy at 5:30 twice a week. We shall see how that goes. I love AA but getting someone to watch Crazy is hard.

Things I can't wait to say!

"Want to feel my port?"

"Why yes, I have lost weight!"

"Yeah, I do look good, thanks!"

"I'm full."

"I need to get to the gym."

"I've lost X pounds!"
