The irony

I was dreading having to start this preop diet (which for me is just shakes, sf popsicles, and broth). Been on it for 9 days... now I'm dreading having to get off my shakes for the Clear Liquids on Sunday! LOL smh

I'm in the same boat. I think it's definitely going to get worse for awhile before it gets better again.

At some point soon, we're really going to be looking forward to eating baby food. . Heck, I'm excited at the idea of having an egg or cottage cheese again someday.

Post op liquid diet is easier than pre op for me.

4.5 weeks after my surgery, I'm traveling to participate in a charity 5K in support of a friend. We all went last year and stayed at the same hotel next to a well-known local truck stop/diner.

Every time I think about the trip, I get excited thinking about how delicious those mashed potatoes are going to be! That's about the only thing on the menu I'll be able to eat! Last night, I actually looked up their menu just to see.

Doing the walk 60+ lbs lighter than last year is going to be awesome though.

lol it's funny that we have to look up things before we get there but it's a smart thing to do! You'll feel light as a feather : )
