Wait, Wait Wait

SO I still have a few weeks till my surgery.  I have my pre op class this week so hopfully aftter that things will start to "fly by" as they say. 

I was approved April 16, then finally got a date on April 29th for June 10th.  I have been reading posts and there are people who just got their date( a month after me) and are scheduled for the day after me. (with my doctor!!!!!)  How can that been?  I have hated the wait from approval to surgery, it has sucked.  And it really pisses me off.  How is it that they dont have to wait the extra 3-4 weeks that I had to. Hurgh.  O.k. Had to vent.

Not a lot to post lately.  I am just waitign for the days to pass till my surgery.  I have been doing a lot of research on protein drinks, etc.  But from what I hear my tastes will change but owell, it makes me feel good to be trying ahead of time. 

I have been trying to cut out the cards and up my protein and water intake just to get in the hang of it. I have been eating better this weeka nd smaller portions, etc, and get this I have gained 4 pounds!!!!!  Has to be the protien.  
Owell, stay positive this will change soon!!

Things are moving along

So things are moving along.  I got a few pieces of information over the weekend and my preop testing is scheduled for 5/28.  Then the NUT called today and my pre-op class is 5/20.  I asked waht time and she said "all day".  I thought it would be a couple of hours but all day, wow. 

I went to GNC this weekend to browse the shakes and such.  The paperworks said to try and start getting in 60 gm of Protien before the surgery so I picked up some Iso Pure (liquid pre mix).  That is some tasty stuff! I also started pushing to get in 64 + oz of water a day.  

Last night I also worked on trying to make smaller portions for dinner. My husband has always said I make meals for an army. I made 3 grilled chick breast and some black bean and corn salsa.  Here are the links for both as they were awesome! I used bonelss vs the chicken legs and just grilled it vs pan cooking it.  http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,,FOOD_9936_33155,00.html

This Balck Bean Salsa is soooo yummy.  http://www.cooks.com/rec/doc/0,171,131180-252193,00.html
