Have you incorporated exercise , my day was changed to May 19 and I am focusing on ensuring I am eating right and getting everything ready, how was your recovery after surgery? How soon was you able to go crack to work? I'm sorry I have so many questions .
  25. Majique hi I only have to do 1 week pre-opt plan week before my surgery but I am started tomorrow , I must have 60-80 grams off Protein, I can have chicken/ beef broth, sugarfree Jello, sugarfree pudding, and sugarfree Popsicles , and 64 ounces of Water. No solid food all liquids . My husband will be taking me to the hospital and staying with me, my parents and siblings will be there rooting me on. My kids are hiving support through skype because they don't like hospitals but will give support more at home . I just enrolled in amazon Isopure protein program where they mail you protein to you monthly at a $10.00 discount so I went with alpine punch you get 22 serving out of the container which equals 50 grams of protein pro serving. I am also doing the count down on my calenders . Huff congrats on your choice to be healthy. I look forward to reading your post.
