Thinking About the Pre-Op Period
Dec 26, 2008
In two days I will begin my pre-op diet. I'm quieter about the surgery now than I have been, plagued by doubts about my own ability to be compliant.I have a list from the surgeon of the good sources of protein supplements, the forbidden protein supplements (sugar and fat! my two favorite food groups!). I have a list of things to purchase, like a food scale and the allowed protein powders.
I'm psyched and excited, but really aware that it depends on me. Am I brave enough to change my eating habits? Am I strong enough to do the work that's in front of me? Am I sick enough of eating myself to death that I am willing to quit? I have a lot of jumbled thoughts and fears, but in my heart-of-hearts, I know that I have faced a lot of things head-on and with great courage in my life. I know I CAN do it again, my question of myself is "Will I?"
