Only 3 more days to go

So I am having my Roux-en-y Surgery on Tuesday, March 20th at 9:00 a.m. I've been brave for the last 6 months. Yes it takes 6 months of appointments with various psychologists, nutritionists and doctors to get approved from my insurance. But it was worth all the wait. I was 230 pounds when I started my journey back in August of 2011. At my pre-op appointment I was 227 pounds. I was down to 222 pounds, but then the holidays came and screwed me. Anyways, my Dr. (Dr. Stephen Boyce) requires all of his patients to go on a pre-op diet, which includes foods that he sells in his office. I have been on this diet since March 8th and have already lost 12 pounds. As of today I weighed 215 pounds. I haven't been 215 pounds in years. My highest weight was around 250 pounds. I had heard from a very good friend about her surgery, so I decided to look into for myself. Best decision I have made in a long time. I am tired of being the FAT girl. I want to be the skinny girl that I see in my head, the one who is supposed to the person I see in the mirror.
