Topic: RE: Day 1.... Down...13 More to GOOO
Hey January Surgi Sisters you can do it! Keep your eye on the prize. I am on day 4 with surgery on Thurs. At work they had the gall to offer me one of those giant fuju apples coated with carmel, chocolate and almonds. I smiled and said, no thanks! I was really proud of myself.
I know what you mean about wanting it when you can't have it. I have been feeding my hubby leftovers this week to clean out the fridge. Man, I miss my cooking! LOL
You're absolutely right, one day at a time.
We're almost there.

Topic: RE: no pre-diet??
I don't have to do a liquid diet, but I think I am gonna try it for a week anyway. I was reading on here that a lady had the same stomach problem as me (90% into my chest) and that they tried doing her surgery the lap. way but ended up having to open her up...... yikes I DO NOT want that to happen!!! If I don't get to write u before the 7th, I wanted to say Good Luck!! I hope you do awesome. Hugs I'll be thinking about ya!!

Ashley,
This does feel like high school graduation (yes, I can still remember that far back!). I will be thinking of everyone as I'm walking around the halls... Good Luck to you and all of our surgery sisters!

Jess,
Here is the exact diet that I have been on since last Friday. I've lost almost 8 lbs since, so not to worry...
3 Slim Fast Shakes per day. You can also have sf jello, and clear broth or soup broth strained of the any chunky good stuff (I have been doing Progresso Light). Tea (herbal is easier on your tummy) and/or coffee with sweetener only.
I drink water chasers after every shake and even in between if you can, it helps you to feel full.
It's not too bad. You can do this, start tonight!
