I'm thinking this week I might start a pre-op liquid diet. It's not required by my surgeon or insurance, but I don't want to take the chance of my surgeon postponing or canceling my surgery because I didn't lose all 20 pounds. I think I'm going to do 2 protein shakes and tomato soup for meals. For snacks I'll have SF jello, SF pudding, and apples or berries. I'm going to do it as long and as often as I can, maybe allow myself one or two full meals a week on the weekends. I still have 11 pounds to lose before the 27th. I'm nervous that I won't be able to stick with it.
