 |  My time is almost here
My surgery date is fast approaching. Monday, the 25th. I am eating less than 20 grams a day. Ususally one protein shake at lunch, boiled eggs for brkfst, a piece of hard cheese mid morning and afternoon and a piece of meat and veggie for supper. Does this sound OK you guys? I read where some of you are going to soups and yogurt etc, but yogurt seems to have a lot of carbs. I sure hope I am shrinking my liver approriately. Last night I had a special meal. A chicken breast (fried) with chili con queso ( cheese sauce), guacamole and lettuce and tomatoes. I enjoyed it but carbs did not seem to add up too bad. I totaled yesterday carbs to right at 20. Sunday My surgeon said to just drink 2 bottles of magnesium citrate from the dollar store to clean my system and no eating. GEEZ!!! I hope that does the trick. Got all of my pathology reports except one which I am getting this afternoon. So friends, I am psyched and ready. I am not even thinking about anything going wrong in surgery and I will do all I am supposed to guarantee that I will be heal properly. The rest is up to God and I have faith I will be around a long time. Get this I have lost 22 lbs getting ready for this. Goes to show I can do it on my own as I always have, BUT and the big BUT is I can never keep it off so I know I have made the right decision. When I am nervous I talk a lot, and with you Guys I write a lot, so forgive me, but thank you all for everything. I would probably backed out if it weren't for all of you. I love you guys  Mattie

Good luck on your upcoming surgery. I know you must be very excited. How long have you been on the preparation diet? What did it consist of?
