Hi Marion,

Silly typo!! :thumbup: I'm supposed to do 2 weeks with 4 shakes and one light meal of 4 oz. lean Protein, salad + 2 fruits per day! Not as bad as other pre-op diets I've been hearing.

Enjoy the weekend!!!

Hi Marion,

I'm ready!!! I've got to get all supplies ready so I don't have to worry about having the right stuff in the house.

So you are going into your Winter months? Cold and rainy? How cold does it get in winter? We are having our 1st spring heat wave. Hazy, Hot and Humid for 3 days!! We had a Frost warning 2 weeks ago, below freezing.

Carol D'

Yep winter here ...June /July and August... we don`t have all that cold weather (well cold enough lol) but no snow we are along the coast I would say maybe down to 3deg Cel of a night and maybe 18 to 20 during the days somedays a little higher or lower ..can`t really say for sure these days we have such changes ...

I hate the summer and the winter am more of a spring and Autumn / fall person

Just finished dinner and am waiting to be able to have a drink ..thats the hardest part for me so I come check my mail while I wait....House work all done and I am looking forward to FRIDAY tomorrow ..I do have to take my Mum to see the heart specialist at 1pm but thats o.k will still get a bit of a sleep in .. :thumbup:

I hope you have a great Thursday I am glad mine is almost over....

What does your pre-Op diet consist of I was alowed to have with my Optifast some veggies and salads, fruits and sugar free Jelly (jello) NO coffee that was a killer but I also only had 9 days of it as my booking was made on my first visit and very quick..

Night from me ...

Chat later...NOT LONG now......whoo !!!!
