Day 12 Pre-op

I am actually in the 2-7's! My foothold is a bit tenuous right now but it's great as I haven't seen a number that low on the scale in a long time. At one point I had stopped weighing myself as getting on the scale just made me feel horrible about myself and my inability to control my weight. I've been weighing myself every day through this to make sure that I was in fact losing. Given the number of calories I am consuming a day it would be logical to lose weight, but there have been times when I've been doing everything right and still failed to lose. To save myself some angst I have been doing the daily weigh-ins. I have no intention of doing this after surgery; once a week should suffice.

Only one more day of pre-op before surgery. I've been thinking about the surgery and I have to say that I'm neither anxious nor nervous. I expect it to go well and I expect there to be some pain afterwards. I strongly believe in the power of positive belief and I feel very calm about the whole thing. We'll see if I feel the same on Thursday morning :0

Day 12 weigh-in - 279.5
