Tomorrow is the big day! I am so excited...don't know how I will sleep tonight.
Getting a little nervous, but I think the excitement of finally having a tool to help me get this weight off is going to take over the nerves. I am ready for the surgery, the recovery, and the new life to begin. It has not been the easiest past 2 weeks, I will admit. I have been a little grouchy at times and the best thing about that is that I recognized what was going on and just removed myself from the situation and found something else to do.
"Hunger" or me thinking I was hungry was a lot of it. What a change from last week to this week in my brain and in my emotions. Crazy to realize how much I allow food to be the fix for so many things ...much, much better to just work through whatever was going on or to just move on to something else.
I love to cook and I still did....I canned this week, made great meals for my family, stuck to my pre-op plan and I made it through....I didn't even taste what I was cooking...amazing...don't know how many times I started to....but I didn't. Last week was a different story....was feeling guilty about "cheating", then decided it was time to get over that too! It was great for me to know that I can do this and make it all work for the whole family.
I did draw the line at popcorn...a favorite snack of mine...made a new rule..."if you pop it, you eat it in the other room"
