Preop Torture Diet

So 2 weeks now until surgery. HOLY CRAP!

Started the preop diet today. I knew this preop diet was going to be hard.. but damn, it's REALLY hard.(twss)

I tried the premade Muscle Milk Light in Chocolate and YUCK, was hard getting that down, though it did keep me satisfied for 4 hours. But i did order the Muscle Milk Light chocolate powder, it should be here tomorrow. I'm hoping it will be better with skim milk and making it on my own.

I'll probably end up also getting Chike in chocolate from my Dr since i liked the sample they gave me. Still need to get a multi vitamin from them since my other is almost out.

Did go get some healthy shopping done today for the preop dinners. Chicken, pork and lots of different veggies. I swear the store was like a bad food gauntlet, everywhere i turned there was something yummy taunting me. I think i skilled up my willpower by 100 that trip.

I went in for my preop lab work today also. Had blood drawn and an EKG, and was given the breathing thingy to start using 10x a day. Took a tour of the surgery center, it was pretty nice, the patient rooms are huge with free tv and wifi and a sofa sleeper for a guest to stay the night.

Actually got in my 64oz of water today. That was difficult. Felt like i had to pee just about every hour.

Dinner was: 3oz of one of those already made rotisserie chickens and steamed broccoli and fresh baby carrots. 3oz of meat is NOTHING or so my stomach still says lol

Already down 3 pounds since my starting weight. Will probably be more in the morning after today. These next 2 weeks are going to be tough. Definitely need to find something to preoccupy myself to keep my mind off of food. I refuse to fall back into my bad habits.

*** Edit 11/29 ***

I was so hungry by bedtime last night I drank a 1/4 bottle of one of my protein shakes. It at least killed the hunger enough for me to go to sleep. But I've done good getting in my 64oz of water these past 2 days.

I was happy to see that I dropped 3 more pounds this morning. At least the torture is paying off.

Speaking of torture i went to lunch with my hubby today and sat there drinking water while he ate yummy thai food.

I'm beginning to really resent food, i'm trying my hardest to keep a positive attitude and i've been making a list of reasons i'm doing this, so anytime i'm doubting it i can look at this list and get back on track.
