A Very Busy Day
Day 13. I am going to be spending the day packing up my apartment to get ready to move. It will be a very busy day. I did some major prep work already during the week, so it actually shouldn't take all that long to finish up.
I am curious about how much weight I have lost so far, but I just don't think getting a scale is worth it at this point. I think I am going to wait until I have finished the soft/pureed foods stage to weigh myself for the first time. The cons of having a scale are so much greater than the pros. Scales can be a huge motivational tool for me on a diet. But in the end, they are actually motivation killers because they don't really tell the full story at any point in time. I know this in my head, but in my heart of hearts I just want the needle to move down every few days and when it refuses to budge or moves backwards, that just serves to depress me. So, I am going to continue to judge my progress by how my clothes fit and to successfully complete each day by sticking to the diet plan.

A great "diary"! I have nothing but admiration for anybody who is prepared to share their experience of gastric bypass surgery with the world.
Keep up the good work.
I've been warming up to this more and more, the idea of doing the diet w/o the surgery. I just have no clue where to start.
Anyway, I'm rooting for you.
I know what you mean about scales...have a love/hate obsession with mine and wish I could get over it already! lol..great post. Good luck with your move and all.
