7 more days!

My surgery - WooHoo! I am really excited! I am also very hungry. Waaaaaa LOL I just keep telling myself...."You wanted this!" and it gets better. I have never had so much liquid in this body before. Just hope I don't float away before surgery. 5 cans of slimfast per day and water water water. My sister (Virginia P. Larson) and I keep calling each other asking how the other is doing. Of course we have a lot of laughs by saying..."I'm Melting" or answering the phone...."Fooood, foooood" Here is my sister and me drinking our slimfast LOL Anyway, soon we will be sitting beside y'all and smiling all the way. Hugzzzzz to all for the support and your caring souls. Charlotte Butler

I know it has to be hard to stay on a liquid diet before surgery. after you wont want to even drink as much as they say you have to lol As i say Keep your eye on the Prize. It will be here before you know it. I have put myself on liquid protein only for a week to see if i can jump start this stall i am in. lol I am getting a lot of protein in this way anyway. Good Luck and we will be waiting for word on next monday. and then tuesday Ginger will be joining you. That was what me and my sister were wanting to do but it didnt work out. Jan

Hey Sis, How come your slim fast has more foam on it than mine? LOL I had a dream last night that I had gravy on my finger..... are you ready.... I woke up licking my finger...AAAAARRRRRGGGGGG That's pretty sick, don't ya think? I made our reservation at the comfort inn, have you made yours yet. You get a discount if you are a member of AAA or ARRP. Rooms are 68.36 per night for 2 queen size beds. I'M off tomorrow.... talk to you later, Love, Me

I'm only 2 days behind you! Thank God I haven't had to do the liquid diet. I"ve tried cutting back though, and doing a few excercises just to get into the swing of things. Seem like i'm hungrier more now than usual..think it's my mind playing tricks on me. . Good luck to you!

Pam, Good for you for starting your exercises before surgery! What a great idea. With a mindset like that you are sure to see great results for beginning your new life. I wish you the best and a fast recovery too. Thanks for the well wishes, and keep me posted on how your's goes. Hugz Charlotte
