A year ago.....getting started...

Mar 26, 2009

My husband and I went out to breakfast this morning to celebrate our anniversary. I reminded him that one year ago today I started my 2 week pre-op diet. He said it doesn't feel like it has been almost a year. I agree...it really doesn't.  I ordered a three egg denver omelet. It comes with potatoes and toast. I asked for a take out box when the waitress brought my food. I cut my omelet in half, put it in the box to take home.....Last year I would have eaten the WHOLE meal. I still can't wrap my head around the small amount of food I need to eat. I ended up taking home another quarter of my omelet.....who would have thought I would only eat 1/4 of an omelet and two small bites of the potatoes and be completely satisfied?  Before surgery I NEVER thought that it could be like this.....but I am soooo glad that it is. My meal has now become three meals. I took home some of the potatoes and my husband will eat them and the half omelet for breakfast tomorrow and  I'll eat the other 1/4.  I'll post again when it's my one year bandiversary in two weeks.
