So today was the start of the Pre-op diet. First of all I had a wicked weekend in Edinburgh. We saw some good shows, had some good food and some good company. It all ended a bit tits-up when our flight got delayed and we only got home in the wee hours of the morning. Thus resulting in me being quite tired and cranky when I woke up this morning.So I started out being all positive about only eating fruit and vegetables for the next 5 days. A task that seems effortless if you think about it but it is much more difficult in reality. I stopped at M&S and forked out a little fortune on nice quality fruit. Had some at school for breakfast and lunch. By 3:30 I felt shaky and had no energy. I ended up phoning the consultation room and they said I could have soup, just to make sure that is not creamy and low-fat. So I opted for a packet of soup, something I have not done ever! It actually tasted ok and I added some sweet corn to the chicken soup. It tasted a bit salty which is worrying as this diet is to reduce the volume of your live to make the surgery easier.I have bought some papaya as I find that quite filling and think I might be slightly better prepared tomorrow. As for the ever nearing surgery, I am slightly crapping myself. Reality of what I am about to do has knotted my stomach anyway so maybe I should run!  But that is not an option as the full amount has now been paid. Done!I hope my boyfriend will be able to cope with this moody me at the moment and so my work colleagues. I am sorry…..
