Ugh. Pre-surgery binging.

I was warned most people do it.

I said I'd try not to.

I'm told not to, because eventually I will be able to eat just about anything...in very limited amounts.

But here I am, 17 days until surgery...and am caving. I keep thinking "oh my gosh, this is the last time I'll get to eat whatever I want, whenever I want, and however much I want." Yesterday going grocery shopping was tough. My last time doing a full on trip for my family with me eating anything.

I need to get out of this mind set though. I WILL be able to eat again!

Yesterday I got more paperwork in the mail from my surgeon's office. It included a prescription for some bowel prep stuff. Ugh, reading over the directions they included I am NOT looking forward to those few days!

I will start a liquid diet on the Thurs before surgery (17th) and then bowl prep on the 20th.

I'd really like to skip all of this and go straight to a few months out!

I'm just thankful I have such a supportive husband through all of this. I know he'll stick by my side and help me out with anything I may need!
