Preop Diet

Dec 07, 2009

Well...started my preop diet yesterday.  It was harder then I thought it would be.  I thought about food all day.  So...I chewed a ton of gum, drank my water, and stuck to the plan.  I hate the hunger feeling that I get so I hope that will go away soon.  Im trying to keep myself busy with work since I have a TON to do getting ready to be gone for 3 weeks.  I just keep telling myself that I have to stay committed to this process...that I am worth it and that I will thank myself in the long run.  My hubby was so wonderful last night.  He got home from work (after braving the snow storm) and just held me and told me how proud he is of me and that he is right there with me.  Later he even asked me if his eating some peanut m&m's would drive me nuts....I said no....but the smell of chocolate was almost too much....luckily he only ate a few and then put it up.  So this morning, Im feeling better about this...knowing I did it yesterday helps me know I can do it again today.  13 days to go till surgery day. Im very grateful to my new OH friends who are helping me through this...especially Nora...You are an Angel and I so appreciate your support!
