approved!

Well yes I am again slacking at the blog but I'm doing better than last year. I got word that as of january 29th my RNY surgery has been approved by insurance. I am now very impatiently going through the last weight I have to lose. As of last thursday I am down to 16 pounds to lose. Once that is done I will get a surgery date and start the 2 week liquid diet.

I do not look forward to the two weeks of straight liquid before surgery but it must be done so I will get it done. Right now I am doing 1-2 shakes a day and 1-2 meals a day, depending on the day and the hunger level. I did find a protein powder that I can not only tolerate but actually enjoy. Max protein, chocolate ( in my morning coffee) and cookies and cream. The cookies and cream is awesome but is a bit too sweet for normal use but is great occasionally, the stuff is like drinking a candy bar.

Right now I am getting through my days with impatience, trying not to weigh too often and just stick to my routines. I am SO impatient to get the surgery scheduled and over and get to the losing side.
