Let me tell ya...this liquid diet is the pits! I was a work today and my boss heard my stomach growling from across the room. It was actually pretty funny I cannot wait to be done with the pre-op diet. It is a real test of will power. I've completed three days and have not cheated at all.

I was just back from a support group with my Dr. and a girl says she is eating peanut butter and blended chicken a-la-king....A WEEK OUT!

She got reamed, to say the least. Maybe I should put this in the "what made you laugh" thread...
