Hello, My names Jeannine. Today is my first day of my pre-op diet and I feel kinda scared and just hoping that I stick to this diet and push myself through because this journey will be very tough.
 
Everyone is scared at the beginning. But fear has no value and in my opinion, it's a CHOICE. I invite you to feel joy along with your fear, which really equals EXCITEMENT. Don't spend your time worrying. You could choose instead to go window-shopping for the new clothes you're going to need, or buy yourself some cologne, makeup, jewelry or a beautiful hardbound journal in which you can write down your thoughts. Then you'll have something to look back on and grin when you've changed your life and start feeling beautiful.

And always, look into affirmations. I cannot tell you how affirmations transformed my life. All my life I was criticized and told I was ugly or stupid or some other lie. Affirmations tell the truth, before the truth even arrives. Seriously, what do you have to lose? You deserve love and it's right there in front of you.
 
You can do it!!!! Confidence. Patience. It’s a huge adjustment/learning curve. You already took a huge step - just keep going! You will feel so much better. :)
