June 22nd Surgery Date

I will be starting my Pre-Op High Protein diet on 06/12/07, any advise on the easiet was way to get through those 10 days.

Hi Norma, I'm just completing a 2 week hi-protein/low-calorie diet. When I felt like giving in and eating whatever I wanted, I tried to remember that the diet was going to make the surgery easier, with less of a chance for complications. That helped! Also, try to divert yourself with something when you get the urge to munch, maybe a book or hobby? Evenings were the worst for me...the microwave butter popcorn called to me almost every night!

Thanks for the advice. As you can see I changed my name on my profile. I have always gone by my middle name and decided I should just continue to use my middle name. I will keep everything you said in mind.

HI... My surgery is June 22nd also... YAY! We'll be "losers" together!
