The insurance has authorized the surgery. The only thing, I think, stopping this would be catching covid or something like that. This is not an impossibility as I teach. But I'm wearing an N95 at work and handing them out like party favors to my students. I bought 2 cases of them. That's like 320 masks.

My team has a protein-heavy not-entirely-liquid diet that starts 2 weeks ahead of time. Last day, all liquid. I've spent the last several months totally adjusting my eating habits and learning how to cook...anything.

Well, I've made a couple of things. Veggie heavy casseroles with turkey or chicken are good. What's interesting is when I have to improvise, which is potentially dangerous. For instance, I had already prepared the veg for a casserole and realized I did not have any ground turkey, only whole chicken breasts....so I put those suckers in a blender and it was fine. I will say that my roommate had a bang-up suggestion for me the other day. I was making protein chocolate pudding pops. So, along with the packet of sugar-free pudding and the 2 cups of lowfat milk (I used protein-lactaid) you put in 2 scoops of chocolate protein powder. My roommate looked at the various protein powders in the kitchen picked up the peanut butter one and said, "Reese's Peanut Butter pops." And whole new worlds opened up to me.
