pre op jitters...what to do to not eat

Invest in quality and good tasting protein.  I think the premier shakes taste like chocolate milk. I also have ISO100 birthday cake and cinnamon roll powdered protein that I mix with unsweetened almond milk (almond breeze is my jam!) I also have a smaller container of nutritional protein that is low sugar/carb, tastes like chocolate poo but has vitamin supplements. I sneak a 1/2-1 scoop in my shakes once a day

I also have a collection of torani sugar free syrups: chocolate, butterscotc, caramel,  vanilla bean,  pumpkin spice, and mint mocha. 

Consisering you have to drink overwhelming amounts of protein shakes in the future, the diversity helped me a lot. 

Maybe make a list of all the things you want to do that perhaps your health or weight has made difficult or impossible... sort of a post-op bucket list. 

You could download Pokemon Go and walk the neighborhood looking for Pokemon.  I use the app at airports when I'm trying to kill time.  Keeps me from sitting idle and bored. My kids are jealous now of all of the good Pokemon I have.  For those of you playing - yeah I have a Gyarados, Snorlax, Raichu, among many others...LOL) I also used adult coloring books a lot early on.  You could try knitting, though that didn't really work for me, I'm clueless.
