Countdown!

Apr 23, 2010

Only a few days til my surgery.  Saturday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Surgery Day!!!  I've got the earliest surgery of the day with my surgeon, so I'm hoping I'll be able to go home the same day.

My surgeon's office put me on a two week liquid diet with Optifast.  It hasn't been horrible at all.  The Optifast chocolate shakes....chicken soups...and peanut butter chocolate bars were all quite good.  No complaints.  I did get hungry if I went off my 2 hour schedule, but I survived.  My last meal was eaten each day by 5:30 and that's pretty much the same as when I eat a regular diet.  I usually had a cup of herbal spice (decaf) tea after that in the evening, which I found satisfying.  Weight lost so far.....17 pounds in 9 days.  Can you believe it??????

I really am happy with my surgeon's office.  They have been friendly and informative.  They are always helpful too.  So, I'm looking forward to a lasting relationship with them over the years.
