One more week!

I'm one week away from undergoing RNY gastric bypass surgery. You can now see why I have resorted to such a dramatic measure as weight loss surgery (WLS). My starting weight was 355 pounds. Ok, so that's not entirely true. My starting weight was 347 pounds, but I went more than a little nuts in the month before beginning my pre-op liquid diet. I ATE ALL THE FOODS! I am currently 332 pounds, with a goal of 317 pounds by my surgery date next Wednesday. I'm confident I can make that goal.
