starting pre-diet today....

[Doriana 0]

Good Morning....

I'm just my pre-diet today. Surgery is for Nov. 23....

Question, I'm on the cottage cheese and yogurt/jello diet. I could eat as much of it till I feel satisfied, right? I have my tylenol all packed to take to work with me as I KNOW I will get a major headache today. Or, should I just try and stick it out and only have cottage cheese and yogurt for Breakfast, lunch and dinner? ???? Does this make sense?

Wish me luck today.....As I will need it.

Have a great day.

Did you have your band done in Mississauga? How are you feeling today? My hubby is doing it a week before me....He's on the 10th of pre diet and doing good. He had a few almonds here and there, but mainly has stuck to it... I hope I could be that strong.

Thanks again,

Doriana

Good luck to you Doriana....and to your hubby (sounds like he is doing VERY well!!).

You can do it...you are correct though, the first 3-4 days will likely be the hardest so try try try to stick with it; I promise it will get easier (not "easy" but "easier").

It's good that you like cottage cheese; I can't stand to even look at that stuff, so I only had yogurt.

Hint: eat the yogourt/cottage cheese etc really slow....make it last throughout your "mealtime".....you'll want to gobble it but try not to. Not only will it train you to eat slow but you will feel like you are having more than you really are. Also, it might help to put your yogurt/c. cheese in a lil' bowl and eat it from that instead of directly from the container (that way you know how much you are having...and more importantly you will "feel" like you are having a meal....ya know?).

and....drink drink drink drink your Water....it will be even more important over the next few days as you have the carb withdrawal!

YOU CAN DO THIS!!!!! (god knows if I could, anyone can!)

Yoda,

Could I drink with the yogurt and cottage cheese? I know after I should be drinking after my meals? Does it make a difference for the pre-diet?

Thank God I really like Water and I think we could have crystal light too, right? Sorry for all the questions. I feel like an idiot.....

Thank you for your support...

I will let you all know how I'm doing..everyday! You may be sick of me....lol

Ciao for now.

No questions are silly, so don't feel like an idiot!!

Yes, you can have crystal light.

And...yes, during the pre-op diet you can drink when you eat etc....no problem at all.

I'm at work right now, feeling a little dizzy with a bad head ache.... That's okay, I'll get through this. I'm going to eat some yogurt right now too.

Take care,
