Pre-op diet starts 9/2/14
Aug 30, 2014
I've already been making changes so that the transition goes smoothly. I threw out anything high carb, started upping my protein, and chew until mushy. One of the hardest things is not drinking with a meal. No liquids 30min before/after a meal. I understand that it would just empty my stomach faster when I do that. but it's engrained from years of drinking *something* with my meal. Also, I need to start taking little sips. Can't chug water after surgery ever again. Getting the water should be easy as I drink all day, but sipping is a challenge.
Just by following some of the diet I've already lost 18lbs.
