I'm following my doc and dietitian's instructions for my pre-op diet:  3 cans of Slim Fast per day plus all the calorie free liquids I want (SF Jello, popsicles, crystal light, broth).  I track my intake on myfooddiary.com and I'm only getting 600-700 calories per day.  I know they want me to lose before surgery, but seriously that's not very many calories!  Thank goodnes I'm on day 9 of 14 - I could never go longer than that!

I start my liquid diet on Wednesday. I hope it'll be fairly easy. It should be. I've done 2 weeks diets before without cheating, but I was on more proteins and calories.

I;m just not looking forward to all of the bathroom trips, LOL.

My liquid diet starts tomorrow...I hope I make it.  Man the worst part is my youngest daughter's birthday is next Monday, my mother in law is making dinner for her this Saturday and lucky me, I get to have sf pudding instead of birthday cake and slimfast or broth for dinner instead of grilled chicken salad!  Oh joy, oh happy day!!!  I'm trying to think positive, but that day and next Monday are gonna bite big time.  Oh well, I gotta do what I gotta do.  Pray for me people this is gonna be the longest 7 days of my life!! By next Tuesday, I'll be begging for anethsia so I can get some real rest.Lol
