2 MORE DAYS
I HAVE 2 MORE DAYS TILL MY SURGERY TOMORROW STARTS THE LIQUID DIET. MY LAST MEAL TODAY IS GOING TO BE BBQ RIBS FROM MONTGOMERY INN (A CINCINNATI FAVORITE).
I ALSO WORK ON MONDAY, SO I CAN ATLEAST NOT WORRY TOO MUCH SINCE MY JOB KEEPS ME BUSY. I'M NOT WORRY IF I DON'T GET ENOUGH SLEEP SINCE I GOT TO BE AT THE HOSPITAL @ 5:30 A.M. I'M ALREADY PACKED AND HAVE ALL MY BROTH,PROTEIN, SF POPCICLES, ETC. AS LONG AS I DON'T GET HIT BY A CAR BETWEEN NOW AND TUES, I AM ALL READY TO GO...LOL
GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE GETTING SURGERY IN JUNE AND I SEE EVERYONE ON THE LOSER SIDE!
I've been drinking the liquid Carnation Breakfast Drinks for a couple weeks now...instead of eating full meals. They say that this liquid diet helps to get our liver? ready and stronger for the surgery. I guess my last meal was a couple weeks back -- and by that time....I had already did a week of just the liquid stuff - -and I could not even eat all of it.
I'm trying to focus on all the foods that I "will" be able to have instead of those that will not be helpful to my goals after surgery.
It sounds like you are ready....and I'm trying to get to that point. I'm avoiding packing my bag....but at least I have been able to process on the message boards what I plan to put into the bag.
Best wishes to you and keep us posted.
