Hey y'all! 

Today is my brothers birthday and the family is going to a Mexican restaurant to supper. Ahhh!!! I am on day 5 of my pre-op diet. With surgery at least 9 days away (I'll find out surgery day on the 22nd). My pre-op is not as bad as some. I can have eggs and bread for breakfast, 3oz. of lean meat and 1-2 cups of veggies for lunch and supper. Also I have protein shakes in between each meal. I've only had breakfast, lunch and 1 shake. What do I do?!?

See if you can order some taco meat and garden salad. Then when you get home later on, have your last protein shake.

Fajitas, no tortillas, no rice, no beans.  That'll be just the meat and veg.  YUM.

I would order chicken or beef fajitas and not use the tortillas.  You have your protein and veggies right there.  I've been told a serving of protein looks like a deck of cards.  Go have fun and celebrate.  Just know your limits.  you can take leftovers home ( minus the tortillas) for another meal!
