  1. Hannaband, I go in at 9:30 on Wednesday. It looks like it.'s just you and me kid! All Clear Liquids tomorrow! And then .....Christmas!

    Keep in touch, so confident but excited as well, how are you my friend? I just had my last Greek yogurt before no full liquids tomorrow

    My plan is to get a mani pedi in the morning, head to the chiropractor office for a adjustment, then do some shopping to keep myself busy and not thinking of food, tidy the house, do the laundry.

    Get my long dress out to wear to the docs office, flat shoes that slide on, matching socks. Remove all jewelry, braid my hair back.

    I paid for everything already at the docs office, picked up the pre and post medications, heating pad on my bed, treadmill accessible, gas x caps, could not find strips. SF Popsicles, small pillow for hugging and driving, spit cup for car if needed.

    Anything else I forgot.???? What's on your list? The very best of luck to you, and I will be prayer for you surgeons hands to be skilled and blessed! Peace be with you, friend.


  2. To be honest, the first two days of the liquid diet were rough for me, I just had to keep re enforcing what my goal is and just ignor the hungries.

    I mixed my Protein Shake with fat free milk and a couple of ice cubes, yummy. I am using Bari Care Protein Shakes, I bought them on the web. I have tried many shakes before, this by far does not feel like diet food. I am on day four now. Two more days, then one day clear liquid, next day surgery.

    Something else I have used are cream of potato, Tomato, squash, celery, etc.. Soup. Find the 90 something fat free, then blend it to liquify any small pieces, microwave and enjoy. Lentil soup, black bean soup, they can all be puréed and really satisfy.

    Don't forget, cream of wheat hot Cereal, even grits thinned in a pinch.

    My favorite shake is Greek yogurt, three frozen strawberries, maybe eight blueberries, couple cubes of ice, about an ounce of fruit juice and trivia to taste.

    Good luck! Hope this helps you.


  3. I had similar symptoms this past two weeks. The doc said sinusitis. Rx for amoxclav cough Syrup, and the true god send for me, the 12 hour time released musinex! After a few days on the musinex, I felt almost back to normal. The congestion in my chest and post nasal was pretty much gone. Could not take the antibiotic, and did not need the cough syrup after the mucus loosened. Good luck! I felt miserable too. Hope this helps and you are on your way to a speedy recovery!
