Today's my birthday and.....

[sandy'ssleeve 7]

I'm on a one hand countdown. 4 days! This preop diet is getting so old. I can't even look at pistachios anymore. On day 5 of my preop diet, my 2 year old daughter got a stomach virus. On day 8, I got the virus. I got no Protein Shakes in for 2 days because I couldn't keep it down, and I had (less than 10) saltine crackers and a small amount of Sprite. That scared me about messing up. Now it's day 10 and my husband has the virus. I am hoping my son (7 years old tomorrow) won't get it because he gets dehydrated very quickly and has to be hospitalized if he vomits too much because he has kidney disease. Today is my birthday. I had one small bite of cake and one small bite of ice cream. No sodas. Water. I am going to dring another Protein Shake and eat some berries for supper. Tomorrow, I have to go to a family lunch where my favorite meal is going to be prepared and I won't be able to eat a bite because of this stupid preop diet. I am so over this!! I am ready for Wednesday. I hope I haven't screwed up. I've lost 10 lb. on this preop diet. What do you think?

don't tell anybody i'm saying this, but if you had a couple of bites here and there of a "very little" something tomorrow, it wouldn't kill you IMO

Happy Birthday!!!

I do not think that you have messed anything up... Did you have a certain amount of weight to lose or was the pre-op to just shrink the liver? I will have to start my two week diet in the next week or so and I am not looking forward to it at alllll!!! Sorry that you guys have been passing that stupid flu around...
