Wow.. That's an awesome preop diet... My consists of two shakes a day and 3 oz of lean meat and a side of vegetables for dinner. Consider yourself lucky!

Well done! Thanks or sharing! Very inspiring!

I just watched a show where they has a doctor on who specializes in hair loss... She said that the amount of protein that one takes in DOES INDEED matter. My doc said the same thing. Some people say biotin works and some don't but he said it does help as well as zinc.

Congrats!! You're whole life is about to change!

I'm on day 9 of my preop diet and I agree the 1st 4 days were horrible.. Now I'm just completely exhausted.

Kind of getting sick of protein shakes. Still very fatigued. I could go to sleep right now. Talked to the hospital today and scheduled my pre-surgical tests for the day before. Had no idea I'd have to do another EKG, Chest Xray and blood work... But the hospital requires it.. Anyone had to do this?

Those look so cute! U look great in them too!

That's awesome with the pics.. Great job

Gorgeous
