The thin me

I wanted to do an official kick off to this topic, but I can't wait to get my thoughts all straight first. For those of you who haven't heard, I've been looking into getting the gastric bypass surgery done. I've been somewhat practicing the diet and exercise to see if I'd be able to make it. The past couple weeks, after having met with the clinic's nutrionist, I've been getting up EARLY to exercise ... 6 a.m. is sometimes too early, but I'm working hard at doing a mile on the treadmill before work. After my mile walk, I have my breakfast while watching the Steve Harvey Show, followed by my morning bath/shower, then the normal routine of feeding and dressing Nela while Kujo gets the boys ready for school. I think I'm going to do fine. I've realized I do eat more sweets than I originally thought. I do well staying away from them at work, and at home when they're not here. I think I'm going to have to say No Thanks when it comes to friends/family dropping off goodies for the boys. Out of sight, out of mind, in the house, in my mouth is the motto around here. I'm excited to go through this process, and hope I decide to do the surgery after all my initial visits are complete, because this BBW (big beautiful woman) is looking forward to shopping in the skinny girl department.
