The Protein build up your body so you can recovery quickly from surgery. Helps the body heal much faster if you're ahead.

I am going through the same pre op thing...my surgery is November 30th and I've told myself I will start exercising more and that hasn't happened. The thing that helped me increase my activity is I bought a Fitbit the other day and I keep looking at it to see how many steps I've taken and how many calories I've burned.

It isn't magical, just like the surgery, but I feel more in tune with myself and more accountable. I've gained weight lately and found that I've given myself a 'free pass' because I'm having surgery. Well, no more of that!

It is truly One Day At A Time with this stuff! So hard but we can do it. I actually used the steps today at work instead of the elevator! Victory!

Good luck to you and let us know how you're doing.
