Looking at your carb counts from a pic you sent in, my Dr has told me to keep the carb count at around 30 or below as much as possible (goes out the window some during soft diet portion since most of that is carby) . Your carb counts seem kind of high in comparison, but I am not sure if there is a medical reason for that. That's my only observation. Hope it gets better!

I had my surgery yesterday. I'm back home now, but I am struggling with my water intake. I am just not getting enough water, and I can feel myself starting to get dehydration. Anybody have any tips or tricks on that?

My surgery is scheduled for Tuesday as well! Everyone keeps asking if I'm nervous. I haven't been nervous for the surgery at all, but I have been more worried about failing at the diet changes needed. So far I am killing this preop liquid diet though, so that has helped me feel more confident. My only issues is that I have some sort of rash or break out developing on my face and back. It doesn't itch like people say the keto rash does, but the one on my face kind of burns like a sunburn. Not sure what all that is about. Looking forward to seeing everyone's journey!
