Anyone else scheduled for that day. I'm so excited, I can hardly stand it but I'm sooooooo nervous too. My surgery is scheduled for a Wednesday and I've got to go back to work the following Monday.
I'll make it though...I'll just take it really easy....15 days and counting....

my surgery is tomorrow and I'm excited!! But question.. Where do you find the tasteless protein?

hello there we have the same mind set that is the same thing i have been doing. i have a way to go yet but i want to make sure that i have all my things in order.  your list looks like mine i still need a scale.  well good luck with your surgery and i hope a speedy recovery to you.

Yes please remember that. That stuck in my head and I think that's why I'm doing so well.  Just to update everyone....this is DAY 6 POST OP for me. The gas has gone away thanks to the walking. I'm getting my water in but sometimes I can only get in 48 ounces. This might be TMI for some but i had my second bowel movement today since I've been home so I'm very very excited about that. I think it's because of the water. I was a little nervous because the last time was Saturday but thank God it happened today.

The liquid calcium that I purchased from the Vitamin Shoppe is so nasty it makes me ill so I'm taking that back TODAY. I missed a day the other day because I simply couldn't do it. The protein is nasty too. They both make me ill. I pruchased Vanilla isopure but I'm taking my girlfriends recommendation and buying the tasteless protein so that i can mix it with everything that I eat without the taste.  I didn't get my protein in yesterday so I really really need to get on the ball with that today. The protein is CRITICAL because our bodies can't survive without it.

Lastly,  The best thing of all is I'VE LOST 10 POUNDS. YEAAAAA   *NOTE* get the cheap handheld blender from Walmart. It works like a charm and it's better to use since you will only be grinding up small tbps.

I can't explain it but for some reason when I had 2 weeks to go it seemed like such a long time. Now it is only  one day later when I have 13 days I can't believe how fast it is coming. So here I am with only 13 days to go until the next chapter in my life.

I feel like I have so much to do to get ready. I think I will make a list of things I need to do in the next days and then I will not be so overwhelmed when the time comes. Maybe pack my overnight bag with comfy pajamas, lip balm, toothbrush and toothpaste, deodorant.

Think I will buy some SF jello and some bouillon to make broth, not too much because I realize my tastes may change after surgery. I Will also buy some things for the kitchen like a baby spoon, and a food scale. I feel better writing these things, does not feel so overwhelming now.
