3rd Day of the wonderful Pre-Op Diet -- am I dieing? LOL

Aug 21, 2011

Ugh today is the 3rd and final day (thank God) of the liquid diet while I have a regular sized stomach (I still have 2 weeks of liquids after surgery as well)..  I feel nautious today, and I can't shake it.. It's hot here today - well for Oregonians at least - and we have only one small air conditioner that is in the bedroom (the stupid window thing doesn't fit the other windows)...  So I think it is a combonation of no solids, being hot, and I am freaking out a little bit.. All of those "what if's" are now screaming at me in my head..  I know I will be fine, and I am sure I won't feel any better tomorrow except then I will have pain med (whoo hoo LOL - j/k)... 

I guess this day is over half way done now, so just counting down.   I still need to get all my stuff togheter for the hospital - figure I will do that later tonight so the night goes quickly.  I am sure I won't sleep well anyway, the anxiety will be overwelmng as the night goes on.

Any of you having surgery in the next 24hrs, I will keep you in my thoughts and make sure you touch base on here as soon as you can afterwards and let everyone know how you are doing

First Day of Pre - Op liquid diet

Aug 19, 2011

So today has been the first day of my pre-op diet...  It's been pretty rough, I really wanted to eat earlier... Right now I am sipping on some cambpell's chicken broth soup (which is pretty tasty) and actually don't feel like something is trying to rip out of my stomach LOL..  I have had a couple of protien shakes today  first one was GNC's total lean shake (cookies and cream) which was pretty icky even with ice in it ; then I had a Muscle Milk - Chocolate pre-made and that is pretty tasty (I will keep drinking those if they taste the same after surgery).  I strained some Progressive chicken noodle soup (boy I didn't want to give away the noodles, carrots, chicken to my son LOL) which was pretty tasty (not any better than the Campell's I am having now, and the Cambpell's is cheaper and I don't have to strain it ) and some water.  I had my boyfriend go get some sugar free popsicles and some SF jello - which I will probably have later tonight.. 

I have no idea how folks that had to do this diet for 2 weeks did it, I think 3 days is going to drive me nuts LOL..
