Day 5 of Liquid Diet

I'm back from NY. Today is day five of the diet and I'm hanging in there. I have to say that day 3 was the hardest so far. Everyday has been hard...this sucks but I'm keeping my eye on the prize. Six days until surgery and I'm very excited and anxious to have the surgery part over with. I have periods of complete excitement and periods of apprehension. I'm sure that is standard for most.

I'm realizing that I am a bit disappointed with the Barix clinic.First, my experience with the dietitian last week was not great. I felt like she was spewing information verses speaking to me. I would have thought that maybe someone from the clinic would have called me this week to check in on how I'm doing with the diet since it is very hard to do. I'm going to call on Monday to see if that is part of their process or not. I feel like I am paying a lot of money and not getting the attention that I want. No one from the clinic has mentioned an sort of support group or follow up care. I feel like I'm winging it here. This forum has been the best source of informaton and support for me.

I am probably sounding whiny....probably am cos I'm starving. Anyway, I'll press on. Oh almost forgot...with the "cleansing" that is occuring I've noticed a remarkable improvement in my joint pain.

Signing off. Until next.....
