10 days and counting....

Okay, so I have ten days left of this incredibly boring pureed/liquid diet left! I have another doctor's appointment on September 24th and I will be able to start on a normal food diet within reason. Still no breads, pastas, rice, etc....probably FOREVER. I will also have to always watch my sugar and carbohydrate contents on all my foods for the rest of my life. I am just so excited to finally be able to put something crunchy in my mouth. I have already stocked up on raw nuts, saltines and pretzels. I am going to have to start eating healthy...the surgery is just a tool and I have to use it properly. I am learning a lot in my support group meetings. I have another meeting this Saturday in Woodstock. It's a new group for me, so I am excited to see what I am going to learn. I am also keeping up with my walking routine everyday. I miss one day yesterday...and felt really bad. I must walk at least 20-30 minutes a day. I am about to take Zoey on a walk right now! I am going to walk the pounds away!!!
