Cannot believe it!
Doesn't it feel great, my surgery is tomorrow morning but I had to lose liver fat before and lost 40lbs. Getting out of plus sizes was the greatest feeling. Kuddos to you!

Protien Powder/Drink Samples
My Nut said no, if you read the ingredients there's about half of what you need. I can't find a good chewable so I'm being bad and taking the gummies, post op for first week.

Started pre op liquids
Tried Isopure, wouldn't recommend it, had to add drink sticks to it. Also bought Centrim chewable vitamins, yak, so I'm doing a no no and using One A Day Gummies. Just till week one is over.

Isopure
I'm on clear liquids for 2 days so that's why I tried it. Only bought 4 bottles on sale at GNC.

Isopure
Just picked up some Isopure before surgery. I got it cold and started to drink, yak it's not so good. As expensive as it is, and I bought 4 bottles, I tried to figure out what to do. Well I have Hawaiian punch drink sticks, so I added about half a stick. Much better. I have the fruit one and a pineapple fruit one. Just wanted to share if anyone else needs to try it. Also, If you look under Protein shakes in Pinterest there are good recipes to make your shakes better.

going to Disney world in 19 days...
My son works at Disney, we went in September and it was interesting to find good food choices in the quick service areas. There's a place in Magic Kingdom, by the car ride that has baked chicken. China at Epcot, Hollywood Studios has a buffet that has good choices. But the food website is really helpful, plus if you ask your waitestaff they are really helpful too.

Started pre op liquids
Ok, 2 days before surgery clear liquid diet. Glad it's Sunday and Darrell is home, he'll keep me on track. Packing for the hospital and to stay at our sons house, he lives closer to the hospital. Gonna stay with them after surgery so they can take care of Dexter my dog and give him his insulin shots. A week with my grand daughter is always good. She probably won't understand why I can't pick her up though. She's the Apple of my Eye!

vitamin crisis!
I was told they don't have as much of the daily dose that you need.

tmi alert!
Back in the day, when I had a period. I would control it with my birth control pills, I would stop taking them to start a period or continue to take it to not start. For vacations or special events I didn't want to be on my period. I didn't do it all the time, just when I needed to.

I would go to the Mayo Clinic or a University Hospital their used to fixing other doctors mistakes. If you have to travel anyway, go someplace good.
