Hardest thing to do

[pjknitts 47]

On Friday I got a call from my surgeons office to schedule my pre-op appointment (yay!) She told me that I need to start having Protein Shakes every meal first day was fine second we went to a Water park a little harder but OK. Today my in-laws came into town and my husband wanted to take them out to eat this has been so hard and emotional I hadn't realized how much I love and miss food. Thanks for listening I just needed to vent.

I know it's difficult in the beginning but you got this. It's beneficial in the long run.

It gets easier! After day 3, you're good. Just keep you head up and eye on the prize.

Remember this is one small step towards something you want very badly. It is temporary and you will survive it. You are strong!!!

I'm preop so I don't know what your going through.. Yet.. Soon I hope.. But I just wanted to give you some words of encouragement..

You got this.. You can do it.. And know when it's all said and done that you will be on the losers bench!

Shakes only? My doctor said for me to follow the Atkins phase 1 diet and use protien shakes. As long as you stay away from the bad carbs, your liver will shrink. Look at the Atkins web site and follow the phase 1 part of the diet. You don't have to count calories, just eat protien and fat.
