2 day clear liquid diet and sugar cookies baking!

Ok, so my 17 year old daughter wanted to bake the traditional sugar cookies for Christmas for her friends at school.  Why couldn't she have done this last weekend or even yesterday before I started my 2 day clear liquid diet?  I guess I better get used to it, the smells and sights of foods I can't eat huh?  My gastric bypass is Friday - it'll be awhile before I am able to eat real food.

I have removed myself from the smelliest areas of the house and am now computing in my bedroom on my laptop.  I can still smell them!  awwkkkk!  Someone pray for me that I will keep my hands to myself and avoid that kitchen at all costs!

Just wanted to vent - and remind myself that chicken bouillion and green jello are GOOOOD!   LOL

Cindy

Aww Cindy, I know it's so hard!!!!
But yes, Green jello is yummy!!!

Good Luck with your upcoming surgery!

Thank you for the good luck wishes - I appreciate all the good, positive thoughts!  All I can smell is lime jello right now - lol - so far so good!  I can do this!   Yes I can!!  

Cindy....
Girl you are a brave woman.  I normally would have all sorts of cookies baked at this time.  But this year I just can't. 10 weeks out from surgery and I don't want the temptation.
I will make sure to say an extra prayer for you!!  SF popsicles are considered as liquid too.... they are my new bff!! 

Leah - I would LOVE to have a SF popsicle right now - but my grocery store (Walmart) here in little Tompkinsville doesn't have a box that has non red or non purple SF popsicles right now.  When I get to Louisville where there are BIG Walmarts and KROGER (how I miss that grocery) I bet I can find some popsicles that are the right colors for the 2 day period pre-op I'm going through!  In the meantime I am just calling out to the girls to ask if things are going well and enjoying my jello in bed!  LOL

Thank you for your prayers - I really do appreciate it!  Keep up your good work and keep posting  too - you're inspiring me!  

Hugs,
Cindy

aw sorry but hey nothing taste as good as THIN !!!!!!!!!! & welcome to the loser bench on friday yeaaaaaaaaaa for you keep us posted on how you are doing

congratulation on having the surgery tomorrow!! after tommorrow you will say sugar cookies??? yuck!!! lol.  atleast that is the way I felt about food for a little while after surgery, again congrats and good luck tomorrow, you will be on the losing side very very soon.
p.s. I hated the green jello, I am a red girl myself, lmao

Jello! I love Jello! Yummy! Not the blue though...that is still too weird for me!

 Cindy,

I'll be thinking and praying for your rapid recovery.  Dream about those sugar cookies and sugar plums in your sleep tomorrow.  Give me a call when you get to your parents and I'll visit.

Best of luck and looking forward to seeing the new you!
