My surgeon is putting me on a high protein, low carb, low fat diet. I was given a specific menu for the 2 weeks.  I start mine on 12/22, a day after yours! 

 We haven't gotten snow here in Illinois yet but the forecast says maybe tonight! Its on its way thats for sure. Hubby and I both predicted back in the summer that snow would hit during the 3rd week of November. We were pretty close!  The past 2 winters have been pretty rough...lots of snow for an extended period of time. I'm crazy but I love the snow. I don't like shoveling it or driving in it but I think its beautiful. I've only been up here for 2 winters though so maybe that will change...who knows!

I hope you and everyone here on OH has a wonderful Thanksgiving!  And yes, we are all truly blessed  :)    ~ Chris

you're lucky I can only have liquid for two weeks

I think I would prefer a liquid diet though! I have to cook and prepare specific meals, including when I'm at my in-laws for Christmas...so while they're making huge amounts of fattening foods, I'll be in the kitchen at the same time cooking my chicken breast and making my salad. I can do this though! The most important thing is shrinking this liver of mine and making things easier on my surgeon! ~ Chris
