Day 5 preop diet and mani/pedi!
I woke up super early today because my son had to be at LAX practice by 8. We are babysitting our 2 granddaughters today, so I wanted to exercise and get a mani/pedi before we picked them up. Instead of going to the gym, I did a Comcast on Demand kickboxing 42 minute workout (it is GOOD...I was sweating!). Got my mani/pedi and I wound up telling the girl who did them what surgery I am having. I find myself telling more people than I thought I would (I'm trying not to be a boring, self-absorbed person lol, just when it comes up in conversation!). She was very sweet and we talked about it for a few hours. She wants me to come back after surgery so she can "see the results" lol!
Hubby and I brought the 2 girls and my stepdaughter and grandson bowling...what a trip! The 2-year-old is non-stop and really funny. We went to the diner after....oh, my! Within 1/2 hour one had spilled an entire glass of apple juice, one had a bomb out poopie diaper & hubby brought her into the mens room to change her (he is a good pop pop...I brought the low maintenance 4 year old into the women's room where she can go on the toilet thank God!) and one had gotten about 3 cups of cut up chicken all over the floor...I'm pretty sure we are never going back to that diner again! But they're the grandkids...what are you going to do! I apologized to everyone and left a big tip!
I had a yummy turkey burger on a whole grain roll and a side salad instead of fries. I feel really good right now; of course I am getting hungry, but I feel in control. I know this is just 2 weeks of this kind of depravation without the surgery to help the hunger issue. I can do 2 weeks.
Hope everyone had a wonderful Saturday! Shout out to all the other pre-opers....we can do this!

I've found myself telling more people than I ever thought I would.. (though I haven't brought myself to tell my dad yet, better get that done in the next 2 days). I"m on my 6th day pre-op, honestly today might be the hardest just because I've been bored and I have always had a problem with eating while bored, but have pulled through the day ok. I wish I had time to get a pedi before my surgery, but don't see it in my future, maybe soon after :) Surgery Tuesday and I'm super excited.

I was really worried about telling my Mom, but she surprised me. Your dad might too! How exciting...Tuesday! I have one more week, but getting super excited too.
Hope you can get your pedi (before or after, it doesn't matter!!).
You have to post and let us all know how you're doing....I'll be sending major healthy thoughts & prayers your way!!
