Thats great!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well DOne

 

[shelbell]

am trying to think of everything I need to do now to get ready! Starting to clear out the cupboards ready for the pre-op diet, told hubby that there will be no crud in the house and no take out for 2 weeks, and that he will have to do more cooking! He's not impressed.

Any other prep advice?

 

[mandy-1975]

See none of that bothered me, once i knew i was having the op, i didnt want the crap food, but bought loads of it for hubby and son!!!!!!!!!! I tend to feed everyone else......

Starting packing, just little things.

 

[shelbell]

could do with nighty shopping actually. i have psoriasis so want some long sleeved pjs. just need to start feeling well enough to get round the shops!

 

[mandy-1975]

I got all mine from Matalan LOL

 

[mandy-1975]

Well it's dinner time I walked all around the shops, couldnt find a single thing that i thought i would cope ok with sick of shepards or cottage pie, so i decided to get a Frijj milkshake.... well what a mistake that was it is vile!!!!!!!!!!!!! I wanna throw up just having a sip........

 

[shelbell]

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh frijj are nasty. what are you managing to keep down? are soups any good?

 

[mandy-1975]

I dont like soup!!!!!

 

[shelbell]

psssssh how can you not like soup? i lurrrrve soup. specially home made. is it a texture thing?

 

[mandy-1975]

I just cant stand it.... i am quite a fussy person... never really realised it tillnow LOL... if i had soup it would be tomoto with 100 pieces of toast dipped in then when all the toast was gone would throw the left over soup in bin...
