Well, here I am at the close of day four of my pre-op diet- AT THE HALF WAY MARK!!! I have done pretty well sticking to it, for the most part. I did have a few bites of popcorn last night when I took Dylan to the movies to see the new Justin Beiber Movie: Never Say Never- fortunately, Dylan spilt the popcorn so that put a stop to that. But now, my Sweet Wonderful little family is sitting around the table having hamburgers off the grill... one of my favorite things to eat!! So I redirected and remember I have dedicated myself to this and decided to just "blog it" lol I don't feel hungry, so it is only temptation that is making me want that burger. So, I can overcome this!! I can, AND I WILL.
So anyways, I went over my post-op diet today and looked over when I can progress to what different things at what point post-op, and looks like about 3 days post-op I can start introducing pureed foods. I look forward to that since right now all I can really have is sugar-free jello, broth, Popsicles, and water. I think I can be creative with all of that. I think the first things I am going to want is cream of chicken soup and refried beans w/ salsa in it. We will see how i feel at that point of course before I actually commit to that though. :-) I can pretty much eat anything in smaller proportions in about 6 months, 6 months, That's not so bad. I can so do this. I have a great support system, although they have had a little pleasure in taunting me with food this week, its all in fun and games. I'll pay 'em back..... trust me. Looks like dinner in done b/c my mini me is in here under my feet once again.
