Half way check in 2 week 2 day pre op liquid diet.
I am doing great! So much better than I expected the headaches are finally gone and I no long look at my boyfriend like I want to hurt him when he is eating food.
Last week however was hard. Friday we had a potluck for someone's birthday and she specifically requested I make my famous homemade hummus with fresh veggies. There was all kinds of bad food and desserts but I broke down crying cause I couldn't have the fresh veggies I cut up... All that food and all I wanted was some celery and bell peppers lol. I didn't give in but I felt the craving for good food to be a win.
As of this am I am down 11 lbs hoping very much to get into the 230's before surgery day on the 28th.

You are doing great! When I felt like I was deprived during my pre-op 2 weeks, I just reminded myself that I have had that foods lots of times! And I know what it tastes like....no big deal. And it worked for me. Maybe that will help you?

Thank you all very much. I have another potluck this Friday I will be making French onion soup so I can have the broth and feel a part of it all. I had the lap and which was a major FAIL so I am ready to do whatever it takes to make this work forever this time.
I jogged for 30 mins with the boyfriend and have been everyday!
