Hey!

My surgery is on Friday (11/6). I've been on the pre-op diet for 5 days. Congrats on your loss! So far, I'm down 11lbs.

You're right, I don't think it gets easier. I'm on a liquid diet, and last night I was SO close to driving to the wegman's a buying a filet mignon :thumbup:. At the pre-op meeting, my nurse made the mistake of telling me that she knew I was probably going to cheat, and I should eat a lean meat instead of any carbs. Now, everyday I ask my boyfriend if I can have a steak yet. . .but he keeps saying no. That's why I keep him around!!:thumbup:

So far, I've only accidentally cheated by having 3 skittles. I opened them for my nephew and I didn't even think about it when I popped them in my mouth.

Hang in there! We're so close!
