Tomorrow last day of 21 day liquid diet. Hurrah!
I have done it! No cheating, made it through Christmas without even a nibble and a couple of restaurant outings as well! Have to be at the hospital at 6 a.m. Monday morning for my surgery. My surgeon requires a 2 night stay and leaves the drain in for 10 full days. That will be my next challenge. But if I made it through the last 20 days, I think I can do anything!

and you went to restraunts no less. Great willpower! 
Great job!!! That was the hard part. After surgery you want anything except ice, At least that's all I wanted. The drain isn't to bad just annoying. My nurse put a safety pin through the loop and pinned it to my pants or gown. That helped so I didn't have to hold it or just have it dangle. I'm short so it was down way past my knees!
Strong work!! Best wishes tomorrow for uneventful surgery and easy recovery.Walk, sip, do your breathing exercises, repeat. You got this!
