Ketosis is when your body starts using fat for energy because of the lack of carbs.Keep drinking and chew some surger free gum.Brushing your teeth helps also.I can't wait either I have no idea how I made it this far.Keep up the good work we are almost there.I have been feeling little nauseous with some stomach burn not sure about that.

I don't have and stomach burns. Not sure what that is all about.

3 MORE DAYS, people!!! It's getting so close. Hard to wrap my head around it.

I cannot believe I leave tomorrow. I am at work for the last day until I return in a few weeks' date=' I am trying to get my desk clear, but I cannot stop thinking about the surgery.. I get so excited to be on this journey, and then scared about the actual surgery. Sometime I feel brave, other times I feel crazy.... Back and forth. My pre op is not too bad as much protien as I want. So of course I would love some carbs!!! LOL, but holding true...

I will be so happy when I am in the recovery room... and all is ok....[/quote']

Travel safe and much luck to you. I leave Thursday. Getting so close!

Also I want a ticker... Where can I find one???

It's in your profile. I couldnt figure out how to do it on the app. Had to use the actual web site. Once in your profile there will be a list on your left. Click on tickers and then go from there.

You can do it. Wait until post op! Figuring what you should eat and how much , it gets better. Hang in there

I am also march 1st!!!! My preop diet is kicking my butt! Here is my daily menu:

Breakfast: Protein shake, 8oz skim milk or FF yogurt

Mid morning: Fiber supplement (basically benefiber mixed with Water, crystal light, broth or Vitamin Water zero)

Lunch: Protein Shake, milk or yogurt, Fiber supplement

Afternoon: 1 cup raw veggies

Dinner: Protein Shake, fiber supplement

Before bed: Protein shake, milk or yogurt

I WISH I could have some actual meat or cheese on this thing but no such luck. My head hunger is getting the best of me and all I want to do is eat but I can do this if I really put my mind to it!!!

Our surgery is right around the corner :-)
