IVC Filter placed and pre-op blood work done!

Jul 29, 2014

The ivc filter was no big deal, it was sore for the day but not even sore enough to take a tylenol.  I'm on the pre-op liquid diet for 10 days now and weighed in when I went for the blood work and according to the scale there, I am down 20 pounds!  I still have 10 days on this diet to go before my pre-surgery weigh in and I am not worried about it at all :)  I'm getting so excited knowing that this is really happening and I am doing everything right.  I've been using the CVS brand protein (excellent) and the Walmart Rich Chocolate Pure Protein (not too bad) and I've been good.  I did have in the past 10 days, a thumbnail sized piece of talapia and 4 fork fulls of rice and I feel bad for that but doing this diet of protein shakes for 3 weeks is very hard.  I promise no more cheating!
