Well surgery time almost here.....excited, nervous, scared......just about any emotion possible I think I am feeling right now. One minute I am on an emotional high, the next, seem to cry 
for no reason. I guess that would be normal for a major life change knocking at your door. I am on the 4 high protien shakes a day, and let me tell ya (like most of you don't know already) each swallow get yuckier and yuckier....lol....but trying to keep attitude positive and with each swallow keep picturing me in MUCH smaller clothes at sometime in my future.
11-13-07 Well got thru another day of ONLY shakes.......and LOTS of water......I had to get some crystal lite this afternoon......water is getting boring fast. But I am hanging in there
11-17-07 Doh.....no one told me exactly how much water i need to be drinking thru the day.......i figured the standard 64 ozs was ok......couldnt figure out why i wasnt losing any wgt for several days.....i called dr office and they said OH NO>>>YOU GOTTA BE DRINKING 1/2 your body wgt in water........geesh......that means AT LEAST 107 ozs a day PLUS your 4 protien shakes.........well i started doing that and have lost about another 4 lbs in the last 2 days.......but boy i sure slosh around ......getting more excited and witchy too......surgery in a few days now......
11-18-07 I am soooooo sick of drinking water and shakes....god help me thru the last several days.....lol........i know, i know........this is ONLY the beginning.......i actually tried the low carb chocolate SLIM FAST this afternoon.......and it tasted fine to me.......like a real chocolate shake.....a nice change from vanilla flavor over the last two weeks......
