Day Two!

I just finished my second day of pre-op diet, and I feel really good about what I am doing. Although I had to sit through a staff meeting and watch everyone else be fed all kinds of fattening things, I drank my water slowly and thought of the future. Although I had to sit in my room by myself at lunch and eat my salad and small amount of meat instead of going out, again I thought of the future. I am ready to make a change, and I can do this.

My surgery is 13 days away, and I still have 12 more of the pre-op diet, and I really appreciate all the kind comments and sweet words from those of you who know what it is like. You really help to make me feel like I am on the right track. Thanks, everyone!

RebeccaJ,

I know how you feel. I am trying so hard on this pre-op diet....Have slipped up a couple of times.....didn't eat a burger or pizza...ate a protien bar (2X).....Disappointed, but it could have been worse.... I feel like I started this at the worst possible time: back to school - meetings full of snacks and food - everyone going out for lunch....so far I have stayed strong - we can do this!!!
