I have been MIA the last week well because it is hard as heck to get on my laptop with a 9 month old around. He is perfectly content playing but as soon as my laptop comes out he thinks he has a new toy! Anyhoo. I started my liquid diet last Wednesday and I have had a couple of oppses (Thanksgiving dinner smelled so damn good). I think I am finally in ketosis. My tummy has only growled once in the 6 days I have been on the 14 day pre-op diet. I was seriously cranky Saturday because I wanted beef fajitas from this one particular restaurant. Thankfully the craving hit at 8 and they closed at 9 so not long to obsess about it lol!! I wasn't hungry I just WANTED them and the craving was something I had to deal with. I think the crankiness came from a new change in life coming so a bunch of emotions behind that. I had a SF popsicle and that helped.
I have lost 15 pounds as of yesterday morning. I will take 3 pounds a day! I know its just water weight but I wont be eating solids again for at least another month (purees not included). Any water I was retaining its gone. My ankles are not swollen but I am having to pee every 3 seconds! It is a lot easier to do it at work then at home. The temptations are great at home.
9 more days and a wake up and I am there at the hospital being wheeled into the OR!
