Day 1

Today I started my pre-op 7 day diet. Clear liquids, <20gms protein, 64oz liquid per day for 7 days. It's 9:37am on day 1 and already I'm obsessing. Can I do this? Can I make breakfast, lunch, and dinner for my family and not eat myself? Can I avoid the random nibbles that go hand-in-hand with preparing meals? Will this help me to learn not to snack so much while cooking?Hey, this could be a good thing afterall. I bet I consume at least 100 calories per meal when cooking. A nibble of cheese here, a bit of broth there, it all adds up. Licking the batter bowl is just as bad as eating the cake. I can do this. I know I can.:thumbdown:
