Tomorrow is the big day! I have been working hard in many ways toward this date. It is my pre-op visit with my surgeon. First, I worked very hard to get all of the requirements fulfilled, then to get the insurance approval. During all of this, Dennis and I have been very busy working out. When I travel for work or pleasure, I locate the Anytime Fitness Clubs in the area. Who would have ever guessed? My youngest son Darren is home from college for the summer, and has also joined for the summer. Everyone is working hard. When I went to my first meeting ever, they talked about you BMI (Body Mass Index) and the requirements per your body mass index prior to surgery. Your BMI determines if you are required to do one, two or three weeks of only protein shakes and water. The purpose is to shrink your liver, since your stomach is located behind it. When I did my BMI, I was immediately determined to loose enough weight so that I would only have to do 1 week of protein shakes. This is why tomorrow is the big day! When I weigh in on their scale!
I think it is going to be closer than I would like it to be!
