Liquid diet Day 9

Today is the last day of protein drinks until after surgery. Tomorrow is only clear liquids. I did weigh myself today after being on this liquid diet and I didn't lose very much weight at all. I was sad to see I only lost about 5 lbs. I know I have been drinking a lot of milk, so it has to be the calories from that, plus it's been raining for the past 5 days which means no walking other than the one trip to the park. We will be leaving the house about 6pmish tomorrow evening (Thursday) and heading to Magon's house. Jayda will be staying with Magon from Thursday night until Wednesday afternoon. We will be spending the night there so we don't have to wake Jayda up super early on Friday and it's also only a 30 minute drive to the hospital form her house and it's 2 hours from ours. Magon has offered to keep Jayda until Wednesday to give me a few days of at home recovery without Jayda crawling all over me, plus she would be watching her on Wednesday while we are at an appointment from 8am until at least 1pm. That makes it where we don't have to be up even earlier to drive into the cities and drop Jayda off at her house on Wednesday morning. Thank you Magon, for always being here to help Matt and I out. We love you!

I still haven't had a chance to get the before pictures on the computer yet. We're using Jayda's VTech KidiZoom digital camera that we bought her for Christmas, since our camera is DOA! Well, her batteries died tonight, so it is charging over night and I will try and get them on the computer before we leave tomorrow. No promises though because tomorrow is going to be HECTIC!!! I still have to pack for all 3 of us. I need to do a few loads of laundry before I can even do that packing. I am going to go through Jayda's toys in her bedroom tomorrow, I think, and throw away all the broken things and get rid of the toys she doesn't play with any more. I went through her toy bin in the living room tonight and got rid of a bunch of broken things. Jayda's skills counselor comes tomorrow afternoon for at least 2 hours as well. So yea, tomorrow is going to be hectic!!

Thank you to everyone who has been supporting me this far in my journey. I couldn't do this without the support and encouragement everyone has shown me. I love y'all!
