Today was day three of pre-op and it was definitely better than the last. I had some problems with the slim fast last night, but when I weighed at work this morning, I was down to 284. That is eight pounds from my highest weight when I was sick in April, (293). I could not believe the scale. With that encouragement, I stuck strictly to the meal plan until tonight. I had drank all of my egg drop soup without the drops this morning. So Andy went and got some more tonight and I had that and more rangoon. I didn't care, I figured up my calorie count today and I have gone from eating 4000 calories a day roughly, to a mere 740, before the rangoon. I can definitely tell my stomach is shrinking as it only takes a little fluid and a little solid to get me full. I am excited about my upcoming surgery, but I really want and need to be successful at it so I know that the rangoon has to stop. Compared to everything I had eaten yesterday, I still feel that I did well because in all likelihood with me working, I know I have burned them off. The scale will probably tell on me tomorrow. I will be interested to see, I have gone to the bathroom probably ten times today so I know I am losing water. Tonight a couple of friends that we had not seen in a while came by so that helped keep my mind busy as we watched The Borat (love it). Anyway, each day is getting better than the one before and I hoping maybe tomorrow, I can stay strictly on the pre-op diet..Until next time...One day at a time...One day at a time...
