Surgery update

Just thought I would give you a last update before I leave for Toronto.

One week from today (29th) I will be flying to Toronto to have my Lapband Surgery. I have spent the last week eating green leafy vegetables only plus three special shakes a day. (If I ever have to eat another piece of steamed broccoli with just salt pepper and seasonings on it I think I will just puke!) If anyone has some suggestions to make cabbage, celery, green onions, lettuce cucumber, broccoli, cauliflower, radishes and radishes into anything other than salad or stir fry PLEASE pass them on.

So far I have not had any second thoughts or anxieties about doing this. I am really excited and looking forward to getting on with my new life. On the preparation diet I have lost 12 lb already. Next year at this time they feel that I will be over 100 lb lighter. Right now I just cannot picture it but I will keep you posted with before and after pictures as I make progress.

I will be leaving for Saskatoon on either Saturday or Sunday and flying out on Monday.

Will try to get a blog done as soon as I get back. Right now I just want to thank you all for your support during this preparation time.
