> MeMeMeMe -FEB 27th - I am getting this done just a few months before my husband gets home from his second tour in Iraq - I have no illusions of being thin when he steps off the plane. I only want to get on my way and do all my healing and resting up before I hold him again I am looking forward to getting to know everyone and sharing our journey - Hang on folks - life as we know it is about to change for the best!

> Wow - I walked in my closent and for the first time said " it is not a matter of IF I lose weight I will buy some new things to wear but WHEN. I am scheduled for surgery Feb 27th and trying my best to learn from you pro's. I eat pretty healthy as it is (I just eat a lot of it) but would like to try and incorporate some of that into pre-post op diet. Anyone use herbs fused in their broth i.e. lemon grass or ginger. What about supplements (liquid or ground up) then added. Mainly concerned about getting enough nutrients especially protein. Any tips on preparing for surgery - things to stock up on before hand? Thanks and look forward to sharing our journey.
