pre op diet

Well I started my preop diet on Monday, I had a slim fast, a plum, a pear and then I had baked cod, steamed veggies and some strawberries with splenda....the bathroom was my friend that night...it was awful....so I stopped the slim fast...I guess i just can't have that...yesterday, i had egg whites and veggie sausage for breakfast, the lean cuisine for lunch and a lean cuisine for dinner....i had some fruit and some cucumber....but i was so damn hungry.....my kids decided to make peanut butter cookies and the smell was killing me...but i just went to bed....today i'm not having breakfast because i don't have time to make it, but i'll have something good for lunch and dinner.... damn....this sure is hard....

just 10 pounds Teri........then it's all done. hang in there. Shel P.S. going to Dr. Royes monthly meeting tonight. hope to see you and some of the other RI'ers.

I will be there, and so will Kerry and I think Diane too...can't wait to meet all of you. By the way, please check my post regarding the message boards......

oh crap - i totally forgot about the meeting. thank god i came here! i'm gonna be there. might be with my boyfriend, maybe not.. if anyone recognizes me, say hi! i'm shy.. lol i have an appt with Dr. Adams at 2pm today.. woohoo. can't wait to meet her! kristen

you're gonna LOVE her!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She will help you get to where you want to be. Shel

i totally do! she's the best!!! i think that was the best dr's appt i've had in a longggg time. for once, i finally feel like a doctor stopped to listen to me, AND explain things to me. i'm so glad i listened to all of your advice. i can't wait to go back. lol kristen

that's exactly how I felt when I left there after my first appt.......it was like a "weight" (no pun intended..lol) had been lifted. She's so kind and she LISTENS!!! She HELPS!! And she has ANSWERS!! Holy cow, I thought that was a miracle in itself. And did you see her little peanut baby??? Leah is still a rather scared new mom...it's cute. I think her little girl is gonna tell her what's up when she gets bigger!! LOL. I'm so glad you're happy. I know this was the best advice I'd ever gotten (thanks NaDene!!!!) She's probably thrilled with this message board. She's getting patients left and right now. LOL. Hope to see you later at the support group meeting. I've seen your picture here, so I'll look for you. Hugs.... Shel
