Day 2 of the preop diet blues....

One day down, 13 more to go. Actually I am cheating already....I am out of town on business and "assumed" I would be able to get the two Protein drinks I like at the GNC here. Dontcha know they were out of both of them. I sm supposed to be doing 2-3 low carb shakes and 1 small low carb, low fat meal. So, I have been doing all low carb low fat meals. Luckily I go home today and have all of my shakes and food ready and waiting. This is gonna be a long two weeks! I gave found that crushed ice is my best friend. If I can crunch on that all day I am ok. Glad I am working at a hospital cuz they have the BEST ice! Gotta look for the rainbow in every storm!

Have a great and inspiring day all!

Hi there, I am ready to start my pre-op one week liquid diet on Friday...I am not really looking forward to it, but i know that it will come to an end...so hang in there and hope it all works out for you...you can do it!!!!:-)

Hiya

Good luck with the rest of it - I start mine on Thursday, and luckily only have a week, but its all liquids.

The only plan I have for mine is to get out of the house with the dog when the food urges take me, and read thru my list of all the reasons why I want the surgery done, and how being in tip top health going into it will help me....I can't fail this one having failed every other dieting attempt over the last 22 yrs!!

day three of the pre-op diet here (doc wants three weeks of the pre-op liquid).

Its no party but I just get through it. I've gotten used to carrying around two Siggs - one full of Water & the other full of chicken broth. throw in a couple of organic soy Protein shakes (zero sugars) and that's the day. I've been sitting right at 80g Protein & 800-900 calories for the day.
