i've started packing a little also - we are told to bring our own protein just in case we don't like what the hospital has. I also packed some mixins to flavor water if needed. I also packed a light robe, sleep shorts, carmex, gas-x. Planning to pack my laptop, nook, slippers also. Planning of course my tooth brush and hair brush - because just feeling a little "put together" makes me feel better. Paper and pen - for any notes. I have to take my program book with me also. My stay is 2-3 nights so I think it is a little longer than some.

I don't even know what day it is anymore LOL I guess maybe day10? I am having a hard time getting my calories in - my diet is low fat (super low like 6 grams a day) and high protein - I am not a sweet eater except a few of my faves - I am sick of jello and pudding! Veggies have so few calories! I have been ending my day at like 700 calories and supposed to be near 1000. Ugh. Flip side is I'm not hungry anymore! Can't wait to be on the other side so I can have some meat!!

Julie, best of luck!!

Jitters I guess! Sounds normal - I am pretty sure I will be running around sunday night in a nervous state - I have my list going and have packed a few things - I know I will forget something! Getting new tires because I am sure the one bad one is going to wait til Monday morning to give me trouble! Hang in there, I think it's normal!!

thinking of you all and sending prayers!

I'm so glad you posted! Been wondering how it went! Congrats!

I noticed my buttons are back too but fast reply still isn't working boo!

The forum has changed for me today - things that used to be buttons that said what they were for now are pictures or have no words. Also, the quick reply option has quit working! Here's what I have found - the green circular arrow is reply and if you reply that way it works! Hope that helps - I didn't see anything in the forums about the changes and it took me a while to figure it out.

I'm a week in to mine - the last few days I don't even feel hunger - I am able to have 4 protein drinks a day, all non starchy veggies and some sugar free things - pudding, jello, popscicles and also oatmeal or cream of wheat. I set my calories at 1000 protein at 125 and carbs at 115 on myfitnesspal and I haven't made my calories since Friday

awesome! I will add you to the calendar!!
