Hi All,
I'm suffering through day four of my pre-op diet. I honestly never thought I could be so hungry in my life. And then I realized that it's still liquids after the surgery (4/26). I sometimes feel like I just won't make it.
That said, there's one thing that makes it harder for me than most. I am allergic to artificial sweeteners and the nutritionists were not prepared at all to deal with my issues. I had to literally educate them on what constitutes certain artificial sweeteners.
So there you go. I'm starving and I can't indulge in something as silly or distracting as Jello or soft drinks.
Feeling very sorry for myself right now
