Clear Liquids and Weather Concerns

Do I started my Clear liquids today. So far, not so bad. I picked up several different things from HyVee for variety sake and am allowing myself one can of low sodium chicken broth per day. I've been on the liquid diet for more than 2 weeks at this point and that was really tough.

I'm supposed to leave for Tijuana on Thursday and be sleeved on Friday. But the weather is supposed to turn bad and I'm worried about my flight status. I've been in touch with my coordinator who said that if my flight was delayed or canceled, I would be rescheduled for the 25th or the 4th. Ugh! I can't go thru this liquid diet stuff again! I'm mentally ready for this and if there's a delay I'm worried I will just break.

That would really really suck! I'll keep my fingers crossed for you.

Jeni, Here's hoping that your flight doesn't get delayed, but if it does, think of it as an opportunity. You're on the liquid diet now, so just stay on it. I'm sure that you've lost weight already and you'll lose even more if you stay on it longer. For sure, your liver will be in great shape for the surgery if you continue. I know it's tough to think about now, but you'll appreciate that extra weight loss once you're sleeved.

Hi Jeni,

I can't imagine the stress of a possible weather delay at this point. Hopefully, the forecast will look better a day from now..you know how those weather fronts can change direction. I am planning on seeing you at Mi Doctor this week!

True enough. I hope the weather does change. I mean I live in Kansas and you know they always say if you don't like the weather in Kansas, just wait 5 minutes...it'll change! Fingers and toes crossed. My plane isn't scheduled to leave until 11:10, so surely they will have things cleared and running then. Just another thing...but it's ok...I'm gonna get thru it!
