Okay, so my experience has been a bit of a whirlwind....But nevertheless, here I am....scheduled for surgery....I have my last pre-op visit on Wednesday....

 

I am terrified, hungry, weak, frustrated, confused....and excited :cursing: You name, I am feeling it.... I am having a very difficult time with headaches (I have head issues to begin with) and this liquid diet has had me in tears several times a day :thumbup: But, onward I march....

 

Trying my best to survive on two slimfasts and a garden salad a day.... I hope I make it....But I would kill for a little protien right now.... mmmm, maybe some cottage cheese or just plain ole' tuna.... that's all I ask:unsure:.

 

How funny is that.... Three days on liquids and I am not craving chocolate or potato chips....but tuna...who am I? I haven't been perfect... but if cheating with a couple of pieces of broccoli or a few mushrooms is the worst I do, I will consider my successful! My surgeon, however, may feel differently:angry:.
