There is nothing to say that actualy helps with the loss i lost my father in law about a month ago ( he has been my dad longer than my own father). But to say that i try to live my life in the happiness that he would like to see and honour him by doing that. I like to think that if he is looking down and there would be a smile on his face at my antics and he would be at peace because i was happy and not sad.

So today is the first day of my presurgery diet. I had previously tasted my shake using a standard protein shaker and it tasted horrible and thought oh well it is only for two weeks which is nothing compared to the rest of your life. After reading some posts i thought i would try it it in a blender with ice and water. So i just made a coffee shake on ice and water then blended and oh my gosh i just had the nicest frappacino ever! tomorrow i am going to add a couple of drops of hazelnut essence and have a hazelnut frappacino yummmmmm (the essences are usualy found in your baking isle of the supermarket)

um syrup maybe for adding to water so it does not taste horrible like crystal lite

So in australia I am finding it hard to locate a sugar free cordial (most have carbs of some sort in them so tonight i am making ice tea using roibos tea (naturaly caffeine free) and sugar substitute with some lemon then i am going to freeze it in ice cube trays to blitz in the blender, then eat like snow cone. Has anyone else got any more ideas (i got the snow cone from a earlier post) Thanks in advance.

So hello all have been lurking and reading lots you are all wonderful and love the friendliness. I start my optifast on Teusday the 14th may Do my pre-op appointment on the 20th off to hospital on the 21st spend a week there getting Buffed (doctors words not mine) and surgery at 6 am on the 28th.
