You've convinced me. I'm going to put it on my grocery list and look forward to trying it...when I can lol

I'm hoping mine will decrease. I don't want the girls to go away, but I would love to walk into any random store and buy a bra!

Try the hummus with red bell pepper. It gives it a sweet pepper taste. I like putting it on flatout bread. They also make garlic hummus. Word of advice though: check the labels for the Protein. I've found that some brands don't have very much Protein in it over others. For example: one brand had 6 g protein in a serving while the other only had 2. I opted for the 6g one to get the much needed protein.
My 2 year old also likes it (yay!). I've made him hummus sandwiches (but he licks the hummus out before he eats the bread. weirdo)

THANK YOU JamesGz! Great ideas! Deviled eggs.... yum! I am sure I'll only be able to eat one, but that sounds so much better than another sugar free popsicle!

I don't know about y'all but this is one of the hardest "diets" I've done! It's by far not an easy way out. I'm 9 days pre op on a 20 day diet of mostly liquids, and when I got my post op instructions yesterday I wanted to cry. I KNEW what was was going to be on that paper, but it was seeing it in print and it made me furious. A week of only Water and juice after surgery? I wanted to throw my phone across the room lol. I want something solid dangit and I dont want to wait several more weeks! It's a change both mentally and physically, and I still haven't wrapped my brain all the way around the fact I probably won't want to eat that first week. Life is going to be different, and it probably won't fully hit me until that day.
Now, with that being said, I cried, pouted, got mad, and got over it--crunching on a SF popsicle lol. Ya just got to do it. Walk a mile in our shoes and then tell me it's the easy way out.

Yeah she could sue if:
(1) she can find an attorney to take it.
(2) has a backup job asap bc that would pretty much be the end of that one.
(3) feels like waiting 4-5 years while it gets drug out in court.

Oh I wouldn't tell her to get off my back, I'd have other very choice words for her! Doesn't sound like a friend to me. Keep your head up and doing watcha doing...this is for YOU!

Odessa here. I'm 10 days from surgery...counting them bad boys down!

Now that's funny. I was totally thinking about chewing it and then spitting it out lol.

Wanna bet? Try 20 days of liquids.. it can be worse Protein drinks...with Greek yogurt (yuck) SF Jello or broth if I'm still hungry. I'm ready for something different in my mouth...something crunchy.. even lettuce lol

Hey Jana .. I'm a Jana too
So I have read a nutritionist on another site say to mix G2 with Isopure (half and half) to help the flavor, or with Water to dilute the taste. That way your are getting some bonus Protein in your fluids and it goes a lot farther for $5 a bottle.

So my name is Jana and I guess I will be kicking off the month for us. Was scheduled for Feb 28 but set for March 1 now. Started my 20 day preop diet yesterday--protien drinks, Greek yogurt, cottage cheese, broth, SF Jello and popsicles. Not a plain yogurt person, but I got one down today. Yesterday was tough, but today was a little better minus the headache. Counting those bad boys down...18 more to go!

I have been on Calcitriol for several years...it's a prescription strength Vitamin D. I see me endo on the 12th and surgery on the 28th. I'm not sure what he will have me do but am sure I will continue taking it if not increase it. When my levels get low my kidneys stop playing nice so not taking it isnt an option.

Dr. Ariel Oritiz.....surgery only 6 days away! Pre-op diet is still going well. Now, my last pre-surgery task is to STAY SANE!

I am Vitamin D deficient but have hypoparathyroidism. I'm curious what your blood serum Calcium level is (from a PTH panel).

Biotin! I swear by it. I take Nature Made 5000mg one daily. Some of them on the market are horse pills, and this one is small about the size of a tic tac. Takes about two months for the levels to build up but it does wonders for hair, skin, and nails
