I hope Dr. C is well rested...

Cathy, good luck on your big day. I havnt started the liquid diet yet since I dont have a date yet but any tips you can give would be wonderful.. Anyway...good luck and see you at the meetings...Pam

Pam, I didn't allow myself a lot of variation. I'm sure this isn't what Erin would advise, but I really don't crave variety that much. Every day: 1 CIB with Unjury flavored protein powder.. breakfast 1 Atkins shake..lunch 1 large bowl of soup..dinner..probably more than I should have ate 2 servings lowfat or no fat cottage cheese..snacks 1 sugarfree fudgesickle.. snack 1 scoop of Nectar Fuzzy Navel protein powder in Crystal Lite. Not every day, but when I was working really hard. I filled in with lots of Crystal Lite, Propel, SF popsickles Usually came out to about 80 gm protein. More than I needed. Just do what your dietitian tells you and you'll be fine.

Cathy, Good luck tomorrow. You are in wonderful hands. Dr.C helps too many others,so he has to be great!!!! Hope to hear from you soon. Wish I was close to you I would be there to hold your hand. Love ya!!! Shirley
