My Pre-Op Diet....


March 16, 2012 I started my pre-op diet, also known as the Bariatric Clear Liquid Diet. This was super tough. Sugar free popcicles, sugar free jello, broth, water,  and protien shakes are all that is allowed. My surgeon also allows 12oz of tomato juice a day. Problem is, I am picky. So my diet consisted of water, protien shakes, ramen noodle broth and sugar free itialian ice. It gets old quickly.



 The first day of my Pre-op diet happened to be during my kids Spring Break. We had planned a day trip to Tonto Natural Bridge. There were about 5-6 hiking trails of all different levels. I was able to do all of 1 and about 1/3 of another.
Me and Katelynn at the bottom of the only trail I was able to finish.

WE had a great time. I was actually amazed at how fun this day trip was. We packed a picnic lunch and The Armijo's brought some big bubbles and a rocket that were super fun to play with. The weather was perfect as well.
This was the perfect spot for a group picture!
 
The day I started my Pre-op diet I weighed in at 315 pounds.
