I miss my coffee

I do too. I've gotten used to decaf and have been on the fence about whether going back to caffeine or not.

Does everyone know what time on Monday their surgery is? Mine is at 9am.

Just got the call, mines at 3:00p. I wish mine was in the morning!

I have been on full decaf for a couple days. I feel like I need the kick start from the caffeine in the morning, but I may stick it out if I get used to not having it. I am not having any headaches so I am glad I decided to step down and not switch cold turkey.

That means you have to go all day with nothing to drink. When i had my hysterectomy it was 12 noon and it was hard. I would stay up late so you can sleep in longer then it won't bother you as much.

Aw shucks. That's a pain. I'd sleep as much as possible too.

I don't know what time my surgery will be yet, but I am guessing it will be early since we are flying in the day before. I am praying I will be the first one of the day.

Whoo whoo!!!

How did everyone do with their diets today? I felt better today and not as hungry at lunch time. I had tuna and a salad for dinner.

I haven't gone grocery shopping. Mainly cause my kids won't eat what I cook and I can't cook for a lack of kitchen (still renovating). I want to cook pretty bad, but it might be another few weeks. For now I use my table to prep what little I could do. All that to say, I am supposed to have veggies with my meat for dinner. I got full real quick off of a few ounces of meat. I couldn't even fathom having veggies too. I was never a big eater to start with (a small children's plate would be my norm), but the quality got me in trouble. Anyone find they're getting fuller much quicker than before?

That is awesome @Sweet as peaches. You are probably the first surgery of the day!
