Day 5 Pre Op - Back where I started

So I gained this morning, I'm exactly at 241.6, right where I started on Thursday. Boo. Hopefully I show some sort of real decrease in the next 9 days. I don't want my liver in the way!!

Not doing too bad food-wise. I'm definitely getting tired of meat and veggies. Plus, the closest thing I've had to sweet is sugar free jello.

Last night, I made myself a BLT lettuce wrap. My hubby commented that it looked good, so I offered him a bite. He goes, "That's delicious! I'm jealous of your diet food." It was pretty cute.

Other than that, no new news. The laundry room is more or less done, I just need to finish paining the cabinets (they were my brothers old cabinets that he gave to us when he re-did his kitchen). I want it done before we leave for Denver, so I'm going to try to paint a cabinet or two during the kids' nap time every day. I want to leave this coming weekend fairly open, as we'll need to shop for post-op diet, get packed, and I'm getting my hair done.

That's the plan anyway. The weather here is supposed to be in the 50s this weekend!!! After all the snow we had, I cannot wait for some lovely weather. In fact, right now it's about 35 - just beautiful!

P.S. Doesn't this sort of sound like a letter to my Grandma? Or maybe what you'd write on a post card?

  4. Not to worry about posting food stuff. We all envy the food, even when we can eat it. Hope the rest of the week goes well for you. I'm sure your liver will be small enough for surgery. My biggest issue has been only losing a few pounds since surgery. I want it all gone now! I have complete faith in the band so know the weight will come off. You'll get there too. The hardest part is being patient.

    We are getting great weather here too. At least it isn't freezing anymore and spring is almost here. Yah.

  5. I loved Dr. K's pre-op diet! (Hey, I'm going to be in Denver on the 12th... but I doubt you'll but up for visitors... especially perfect strangers.)
