In order to give myself enough time to drop the 10 lbs before surgery, I actually started the shakes about 2.5 weeks before the big day, which was supposed to be 3/1. I get my ass to the gym, keep my calories hovering around 900/day and really bust my ass.
The day before the surgery, around 3pm I get a call from the doctor's office letting me know that my surgeon slipped on ice and dislocated his shoulder. I can either go with a different surgeon, or I can reschedule for about 3 weeks later. Since the last time I wound up with a doctor that wasn't the one I wanted turned out to be a bad experience, I decided to postpone until my doctor is better.
Suffice it to say, I'm bummed :-(.
