Miss Katie starts her trek today—
All her friends here shout, “Hooray!”
She’s waited such a long time now,
Her journey starts – HOLY COW!
Her protein phase will now commence,
Then THINNER TIMES forever hence!
Svelte and trim, goodbye to curves…
She’s been OUR rock, now we’ll be HERS!


Katie!

I'm so happy for you. I know you'll do well on this part (though I know too how hard it will be!) You're going to do fantastic, I just know it. The countdown is on...your "Bench Day" will be here sooner than you think!

May your time pass quickly, and your protein be less gritty!

Have a good week, hon...I'm here when you need me!

-Mike

Default 960 Calories per Day!
I have done the math 5 times on my work calculator... 960 calories per day! WOW... I hope I can do this...

I just had my first protein bar per the schedule they set up for me... it was HEAVEN to chew!!! Taste wasn't too bad either... Next up? Shake No. 2... of 112... LOL!

Yeah, this really is a COUNTDOWN, huh? Poor friends, a blow-by-blow description of my intake! LOL! BEAR with me (TT Bears...)

Scrapbook page: "My Pre-Op Diet" including nutrition labels from the shakes and bars...

Fired up my Magic Bullet the first time today too... I love it!!!! Nice little "treat" for me

Katie
