Day 8 - exhausted

Apr 04, 2011

 Maybe it's psychosomatic but being without vitamins is leaving me feelng wiped out. I've improved my calorie daily goals as 400 was just not cutting it! So I'm probably getting closer to 700. Still really bored with broth, protein drinks, crystal light, s/f jello, and s/f ice pops. It does get easier as far as the food cravings go but relieved that I'm at the halfway point and surgery is next week. FINALLY in the home stretch! I have pre-op tomorrow so will be a busy day.
I'm slightly worried about the bowel prep. I'll talk to my surgeon tomorrow about it, but concerned of the timing. I'm supposed to start it 2 days before surgery, taking 3 doses of Milk of Magnesia. I'm thinking since I have more clients on Sunday afternoon than on Saturday, I might start the bowel prep after I come home Saturday afternoon and that way I won't be having "problems" on Sunday. I have nothing against squeeky clean intestines but also need to make it thru 45min at a time without having the urgent squirts..... ah, the fun of private practice! Can't take off a milisecond more than necessary because the bill-man cometh......
