Glad to see you are back on track maz
Sometimes though the support we need has to be a kick up the backside too hun whither we like it or not. I'm due to go on my pre op for two weeks on Thursday I'm not disillusioned over how hard it is going to be. I have worked bloody hard to get to this stage and I don't intend to blow it by having a wobble. The last thing I want to do is waste my surgeons teams time by opening me up only to discover that my liver is too stiff and big to carry on also I would be devastated to wake up and find that it couldn't go ahead because I didn't play by the rules. It depends on your perspective but I'm fortunate that I have had 8 months to get my head into gear but regardless of what our path is on this WLS trek we all have to do so anyway. If we can't do the pre op are we really ready for the major leap into bariatric surgery?Good luck hun I'm sure you will fly through the rest of your pre op I know I'm dreading mine

Wow!! 16lb already lost what a plus for the pre op ... I bet you are well chuffed Well Done
Not expecting such miracles for mine but it would be nice ... I have asked my daughter to take the scales away to her house for the time being.

Don't listen to the "holy than thou" people on here... its natural you will have a wobble - its not easy! I think some people forget...
BUT keep going! Ive got this to look forward to!! Awaiting my date....
Ps - do you have a Westie? Ive got one - called Hamish (aged 4).
its not holier than thou its reality your surgeon can tell when he opens you up if you have done it properly , if you cant stick to a few weeks on milk how are you going to get your head around the changes a bypass needs indulging wobbles is surely just allowin failure .

WELL DONE!!! I bet you feel SO good??? Many congrats.
I sincerely didn't intend to re-start an argument - its all very well giving people "a kick up the butt" but that clearly wasn't what you needed. Sounded like you needed a HUG, support and compassion! Which is what I offer. IMHO... realism is ok - but you have to know the person, be confident that the person "can" accept it... and its better done face-to-face, than on a forum.
Ive got a Westie - Hamish... he's 4yrs old, and cant wait to spend more time with him - once Im more mobile (post op!)
