Pre-op Diet Day #2
Well, I'm tired and hurting and hungry. I was going to post an update earlier, but ended up having to help my husband with a couple of wall cabinets that he's installing. Turned out to be a bit of a challenge. (Old house, uneven walls). I'm ready for bed, took a Benadryl because these allergies are acting up. I won't be able to take anything after Friday, but Tylenol, which I will be taking for my now, new, re-injured shoulder. Ugh. If I lift heavy, move it certain ways, it's killing me afterwards. Even now as I type, so I'm leaving it short as possible.
Today, I did well. I followed everything precisely again. I wanted to get creative for my one meal, but, well, I don't have a kitchen to cook. So, I just ate some more shrimp with broccoli and cauliflower. If I had time, or more time, I'll try to find something else other than what I ate for two days in a row. Does anyone have any ideas? I think would have just been easier to do all liquids for me. Maybe I'll get some seasoned chicken breasts that's already cooked in the frozen section tomorrow.
I'm hungry and going to bed as so. Goodnight ya'll.

@Thejeweledsleeve 😂 the pain from surgery? Lol. I'm no stranger to surgery pain, but let's see how this one does compared to all the others. Another good thing for me...I've got a high pain tolerance. So I might just be walking in the park, literally too!!!! Haha!

Once your weight falls away you will find that old injuries are way less troublesome. I have had a very bad shoulder for 11 years, literally have to take pain meds every day. Unfortunately it's the side I sleep on most, so that doesn't help, but now that my weight is considerably less, not so much weighing down on it at night, it's heaps better. You will find that you will move around so much more during the day and that helps to give all your joints gentle,regular exercise, and then aches and pains get so much better. Good luck.

Thanks @Brit in Oz. I still have to get the shoulder looked at, but I'll be soooo happy for it to be less painful due from weight. Like you, I tend to sleep on that side, although I have to move in to a position where it's manageable to do so these days. But thanks for your words...I'm looking forward to getting better all over!
