Last night while I was at work my wife, Paula, experienced a milestone in her weight lost surgery journey. She had her last full meal. Now this doesn't mean her last meal ever; but for a very long time. Actually it will be the last meal the size and portion most people think as a "Normal" amount of food.
Starting today until her surgery she will be on "clear liquids". After surgery she will eat a progressive multi phase diet that will focus on a regimen of protein, drinking fluids, and taking vitamins and supplements. Ideally her food consumption from now and for the rest of her life will be no more than a cup at a time or less.
The reality of what's about to happen to in both our lives over the next month or so (I'm referring to the surgical operations themselves), the long road toward our weight loss goals, and permanent lifestyle change has started to happen.
Please pray for Paula and for me as we take the REAL first steps that will forever alter our bodies, our lives and our reality.
