Shake Shake Shake...

 Shake shake shake... Shake my optifast! Well, here I am on my 5th day of my preop diet and I'm hanging in there. I can't say it's been terrible but my second day was rough. Had a bad headache that afternoon and then came the upset stomach or more like upset colon... LOL
The only strong craving I've had is for the taste of salt because just about everything on this diet is sweet: Vanilla, Chocolate, or Strawberry optifast, sf jello, crystal light and the only non sweet: water. I'm hoping by avoiding salt for 2 weeks will help me not want to use it as much post op because I tend to over use salt.
I have to lose 20 lbs by March 5th when I go to the doctor's office for a weigh in before I have surg on the 6th. They say they will cx surgery if someone does not reach their pre op goal weight so I must stay diligent, stick to the preop and walk walk walk!
