How are you doing?? You can do this!!!

[OleHippieGal 275]

I guess doing good. Keep reading my manual the surgeon gave me. Today may have slipped had 2 Protein Shakes had 2 baked potatoes nothing on them but pepper. Never was one to have butter and sour cream on them. Had 2 handfuls of multi grain baked chips. And 2 SF Jello lots of Water. It's sitting around the house being bored that's getting me. And it's freezing outside. But tomorrow I have some running around to do. So maybe it will take my mind off of food. Didn't realize I could have a poach egg on whole grain toast. Manual coming in handy now

How are you doing?

Your pre op diet doesn't sound too bad at all. I was prescribed shakes only for 2 weeks. No sf Jello, no food, nothing. You can do this! Your date will be here soon!!

Wow you are lucky to be able to have steak, potatoes and eggs!! I'm on 5 shakes a day plus Water. That's it!! I kept waking up with terrible headaches but that has stopped now. Also my lips are really chapped, but I think that's because I haven't been great with the Water. I am noticing that I am not really thinking about food that much. Following this diet is not as hard as I thought it would be! I think I can do this!!

Good luck to you. I am having my surgery on January 8th.
