Today is friday. I have been on a liquid diet since March 9. Still doing well with no cheating and I have lost 14 pounds! I'm starting to get a little bit nervous.. Surgery is only 3 days away.. Yikes!  I have been sitting around the past 2 weeks just waiting for Monday. I can't believe everything has gone so smoothly. Got approved easily, got time off from work easily, and already have short term disability all set up. Planning on going to the spring flower, lawn, and garden show today with my hubby even though they are predicting 6-10 inches of snow for tomorrow night. Boo! Have to try to do something to keep myself occupied though. I have to work tomorrow from 8-8 and I think that may be the longest 12 hours of my life! Then Sunday...10 inches of snow. Well at least I can shovel the driveway, and start packing. I have to be at the hospital by 6am Monday. Hope the roads are all clear!

My surgery is 12 days away.  It's getting closer, but I feel like the time is just dragging.  I started my liquid diet 2 days early because I didn't want to be crabby at work.  I'm crabby enough when I am able to eat!  I feel like I am just waiting for my life to begin!  I am so excited to go on our annual trip to Disney in November to actually be able to ride all the rides!  So here I sit...waiting, counting down the days - only 6 more days to work...only 6 more days off.  The liquid diet has not been too bad.  The protein shakes have upset my stomach terribly, and the first few days were a little rough, but I think I can do this!  Switched to soy isolate protein and that seems to help.  I have gotten into a routine of taking vitamins, drinking water, and getting my protein in.  Can't wait til surgery day!
