Day 5 pre op diet
I'm nearing the end of day 5 of the 3 week pre op diet...first 4 days felt awful! Today went out and cut the lawn! I think I was needing some sodium as with all this flushing out it caused me some problems. I've always been cautious about too much sodium, and choose low sodium products..well after having some reg chicken broth I must say felt much better! It's odd the changes already I'm noticing, I'm actually not really hungry...I have moments when a craving pops into my head but easily dismissed. I have a heightened sense of smell, my mood today was pretty good. I'm down 10 lbs since beginning the preop, belt notch one tighter! I see the anesthetist and NUT this Thursday for pre-admissions ..two weeks after that it's surgery day!! I'm not really scared about the surgery it's self or the healing..more failing in the end..but maybe the fear is a good thing..keeping me in check ;-)
