1FabulousDiva 33 Posted November 25, 2012 @ 1FabulousDivaThank you for wishing me the best' date=' No not really nervous a little concerned about the "unknown" that comes with surgery but ultimately no worries. Ive been told that my pre-op diet will be a "liquid meal plan" consisting of Meal Replacement shakes like Carnation Instant Breakfast, Slim Fast, Ensure , Boost, and Gluecerna limit to 1000-1200 calories a day and to consume only 64 oz of calorie free, caffeine free beverages each day. This will occur 7-10 days before surgery day at which I haven't received notice yet I will be told or giving surgery day on November 28th. I'll share date as soon as its told to me!!! Again Thanks and best wishes to you as well,[/quote'] A few more days to go and you will know your date.....I know you are on pens and needles. My count down has started and I have 16 more days.

itstimeforachange 18 Posted November 25, 2012 How's the patient? I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Hello, I'm doing good. My Thanksgiving was great. I went to my sisters house and I drank my shake with no problem while they enjoyed the wonderful food. I was so proud of my self. Today is my first day of soft foods. I had a egg and I mad a bad decision when I chose fruit. I purchased pineapple not thinking about how tough the meat would be to chew. So I'm off to the store later the day.

itstimeforachange 18 Posted December 3, 2012 I was very nervous about the unknown after the surgery. So far the unknown for me is uneventful. Just planing what to eat. I don't care for leftovers so I was struggling with my list I can eat. I'm good now. I go back to work on Friday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
