one week!

One week til my surgery! Its kind of hard to believe! I started my 10 day diet on Friday. So far so good. I am dreading the 3 day liquid diet though. We are going out of town to a family member's wedding and none of the family knows that I am having surgery. (I just didnt want to hear any negative comments) I am thinking about not going. It would be so much easier than trying to lug around my protein mixes and then trying to come up with a story to tell everyone. I guess I still have a couple of days to decide.  Anyway, I am not nervous yet, maybe just a teensy bit anxious. I guess thats normal. I just wanted to let everyone know, =)

Good luck Mary!! It will get here and be done before you know it!

Don't let the liquids get to you, you will get to move on. I am starting pureed today!!

 Don't worry about the protien shakes, I figured my family had watched me go on every diet in the world, I just told them I was on a high protein diet! :) with meal replacement shakes kinda like slim fast.

 The 3-day liquid part of the diet is actually worse in your mind than it is in actuality...at least that was my experience.  

I did the same thing as you and didn't tell any of my family and only a few friends until after the surgery.   You do whatever makes you feel the most comfortable.

Congrats on your approaching surgery date.  You'll sail thru it easily.

Hugs

 Hi Mary,
How are you feeling? How did it go?

Hey Mary!!! I'm so glad to see you finally made it to a surgery date. It's been a while since I checked in on the OK board. It'll be a rough road  at first but you wont believe how great you will start feeling. It took a month before I started feeling really good and it just gets better and better everyday. Congrats on getting here lady!!!

Holly....you have already lost 79 lbs?????? GO GIRL!
