    Liquid diet is going. It's hard, I'm really hungry. I can only have the 4 shakes a day that I bought from the doctor's office and supplement with chicken broth and SF jello. This is by far the hardest thing I've ever done. But, I'm determined to do this. 8 days to go! :)-

    That's great! My husband is scheduled for December. How'd everything go for you and your wife? Smooth recovery, hopefully? I'm starting to get anxious now that it's 1 week away. I just want it over with, I'm growing impatient on this liquid diet. The shakes are tolerable at best. Oh well, only 6 more days :)
