Day two of liquid diet....

The last visit with the surgeon went well. I had to sign all the paperwork and he went over everything with me again. I love the fact that he is a straight forward doc he isn't really "Nicey nice" he tells you like it is and what to expect. I brought up this forum and he thought it was a great tool. He said you need people who understand and have gone through it. My hubby didn't get to go with me to this visit (someone had to pick up the child from school) so he had a lot of questions but lucky me I came home with a copy of everything I signed so he read that first and said well I guess that answers all my questions.

Yesterday was the 1st day of my liquid diet and other than feeling extremely tired at the end of the day it went well. I have heard it is day 3-4 that you really struggle so I am preparing for that. I ordered a bunch of protein samples and they came in the mail yesterday so I will have variety the next 2 weeks. So far the Nectar brand is my favorite. I have a limited amount of protein I can try because on top of everything I am lactose intolerant. I might try some of the soy protein too but they seem high calorie. I guess I'll need to do more research on that.

Oh, I love my hubby and daughter. He was off work yesterday so he pick her up from school and got her homework done and dinner done before I made it home from work. He made his famous fried chicken. I am so glad they where done before I got home. I know I tell him I have to get use to food being around and they have to eat. But I love the fact he is thinking of me and how that would have made me feel.

Today is day two. I woke up feeling great. I think a little from getting so much sleep because I was so tired yesterday. So I hope today goes well.

Hope everyone has a great day.
