    Best wishes on your surgery tomorrow!
  5. I will be keeping you in my thoughts this next week. Remember, being nervous, or scared of having surgery, is normal, so you are not alone. I think you know this is a necessity to live our healthiest lives. And if dieting alone worked, you would be hearing crickets on this website, because everyone has tried dieting alone, many, many times.
    I will be going down to Tijuana at the end of the month, and although I have researched everything to my satisfaction, I am nervous, too. But, I am also feeling empowered, and excited to start my life.
    Try using visualization to prepare for your surgery, and do not let negative thoughts enter your mind.
    You can either visualize your entire surgery with an amazingly pain free recovery, or visualize you are going to be lying on a beach and being waited on while sipping a Margarita. Or whatever sounds like a wonderful and restful vacation.
    I plan to write in a journal book and keep it with me as much as I can, so I can hopefully look back and share my experience with others.
    I am also planning on how I will reward myself when I reach my different milestones ( first ten pounds lost, reaching the Onederland Club, etc).
    You will do fine.

I am happy to announce that I have lost 46 pounds in 5 weeks, I have went from a 20 to a size 16 and some of them are to loose. I have attached a current pic but I am not sure if it will show up right. I am only having trouble getting my protein in. I am working very hard to get it in. Other than that things have went pretty well.I am so happy that I made this positive change in my life, I thank god every day.
