Today is my second day of my liquid diet. So far so good. Last night was a little difficult, not so much during the day but rather after about 7pm, after I had cooked and feed my family. When I got in bed I was seriously craving a chopped beef baked potatoe and an oatmeal creme pie. ( what a shame I know) Carbs and sweets have always been my pitfall. Anyway I downed 2 more bottles of water and a little gatorade and went to sleep, good thing is I am 2 pounds lighter today. I totally expect to have lost a bit of weight prior to surgery especially on a clear liquid diet. I am drinking 2 of those Whey protein drinks per day to get in my 80 grams of protein. Tastes okay and it's tolerable....better than chalk tasting shakes all day. Also I scheduled my pre-op testing for this Friday at 8am. To my understanding I'll be having some labs, a chest x-ray and ekg. So making progress! Just 13 more days until I am SLEEVED!
