Pre-op Land Here I Come

Tomorrow is a big day for me, I start the much anticipated pre-op diet. I totally pigged out today, knowing it would be my last day to do that. I enjoyed prime rib pasta at O'Charley's and of course, 4 rolls! Then I topped it off with a slice of key lime pie tonight. Okay, I'm ready!

I'm feeling lucky that I don't have to do the full liquid diet like most of the other pre-op folks. It seems they are struggling with that. I'll be on a high protein / low carb diet with no white stuff allowed. I am allowed one fruit and one yogurt per day.

Two things I'll miss the most. 1) My cereal in the morning 2) My beloved diet coke. It's kinda like quitting smoking with the diet coke addiction. It'll be hard at first but then I'll get used to it and not even think about it anymore. I'm thinking positive over here!

My first step in the process of becoming the new me ... the skinny chick. :thumbup:
