Pre Op Diet
May 18, 2012
I have surgery in two days. Today is my last day with any solid food for a while. My regimen the last week has been a protein shake at breakfast and lunch, and a small no carb, high protein 300-400 calorie dinner. The next two days are clear liquids only and a bottle of magnesium citrate in the morning for bowel cleansing... yuck.This week has been so challenging, It made me realize how much I am addicted to food. I have cried over pizza, burgers, and beers. I have been in a stage of mourning the loss of my best friend, food. I am really glad I did have to do this pre op diet though because, I feel more prepared for my life changes coming. I am filled with excitement and nervousness as my surgery comes closer and closer. The next couple of days are sure to be even more of a challenge, but if I have come this far and worked this hard, nothing will stop me now. :)
