OCT 2011 Sexy Sleevers!!
Started Pre-Op Diet today...
So far so good... I choked down a chocolate protien shake this morning and have brought my supplies to work. I am super determined to do this. Luckily my doc has us do 2 weeks of pre-op diet consisting of 3 shakes a day and 1 small sensible meal. I will still get to eat dinner with my family which is nice, considering I still have to cook for them!
Its funny, I just started getting really nervous this weekend, I think as it gets closer the reality sets in. It was such a long process to get this far, and now it is 2 weeks away. I know this is the best decision for me, there is no doubt about that, I just have to keep reminding myself of the reasons why.

How did the rest of the day go? It sounds like you don't like the shake too much, have you tried making your own concotions to make them more palatable? You can get all sorts of flavors & even sugar free syurps to add.
It suddenly makes it very real, doesn't it : ) I kept getting those "shocks" & as I got closer, it made me more excited the closer it got.

Hi Kate,
Actually the second one of the day went down way easier. I think it just took me a second try to get used to the taste ;-)
It is now 3pm in San Diego, so I have 1 more shake and a small meal left for the day. So far so good!!
And yes, I think I might try some of the recipes just to get a variety going.
Thanks!

This is my second day of the liquid diet & it stinks. I am not able to eats meals. Only SF Popsicles, SF jello, Broth, Protein Shakes. The smell of food is the worst for me. I havent cheated which surprises me. The protein pretty much keeps you feeling semi full, so it is more head hunger for me than anything else. I have a new schedule, at dinner time I hop in the bath & relax.
