    August 2013 Roll Call

    I am not really not that nervous at this point. are you getting enough Protein? that could be why you don't have enough energy. I make my shakes coffee, a tiny bit of almond milk unsweetened, protien powder and 2 cups of spinach. That is morning and lunch and I put ice in them and have half a shake at a time so I get to have something to drink 6 times a day. Evening I use 10 cal juice with the protein and spinach or decafe earl grey tea, almond milk and Protein Powder. They are low cal, delish and satisfying. I find for energy the splitting them in half and having some every two hours really help and gets me in the habit for after.
  2. I am one week into the pre-op diet and I feel like my metabolism is in over drive (which is good) but I cannot seem to sleep at night. It's not really my brain freaking out, it's more I just can relax and fall asleep. I spend a lot of the night dozing in and out. Is anyone else dealing with this or have dealt with it that can help with ideas (or just sympathy!)
