Soon2BMiniMommy 92 Posted September 28, 2011 Dang, Girl! How on earth have you lost 52 pounds so far! Good for you!!! That's awesome! What a great start!! I made some homemade beef and turkey broth and froze it it little one-cup containers I also have baby spoons and forks from my 2 year old! And i need to go out and get little half-cup dishes. I also want a mug warmer for my desk when I come back to work on pureeds so I can drink my strained Soups slowly without them getting cold before I can finish them! I also have to get SF popsicles, Gatorades, etc. Oh, and a good Protein drink, too. Probably vanilla so I can mix it with everything. My mom already got me a Magic Bullet, bless her little :heart:. Oh, and I got a Tervis Tumbler from Bed Bath and Beyond.....those ROCK!! Getting so close. I have to admit, my tummy has butterflies for our sisters who have their surgery on the 3rd/4th. Thought I was all prepared after this looooonnnng journey, but then I realized if that was me, I'd have the jitters.....and I'm a tough nut, as my hubby says!!

Soon2BMiniMommy 92 Posted October 4, 2011 Hey, Smoke.....I am also going to start early.....my doc doesn't require a preop diet like liquids or anything, just low carb, low fat....but I'm gonna be a little more extreme than that. The more I can help my body along, the better! And, it helps this time to know that whatever I lose before the surgery during this diet, will actually STAY off this time Unlike suffering in the past, only to gain it all back, plus some!
