4 Month Diet
Mine had me give up caffeine, alcohol and carbonation. Told me to practice "eating in order" protein first, then veggies and then carbs if still hungry. Make sure and include a fruit or veggie at every meal. Oh, and not to drink my calories and aim for a minimum of 64 oz of water a day. Also to practice not drinking with my meals.

Anxious and Excited! HELP Advice
Hey, we have the same date! I use a cpap also and agree with the nasal pillow. It sits right below your nose. If you do happen to be a mouth breather but cant stand something on your face, they make a chin strap. Try and relax and know they have alot of experience and maybe ask if they could take it off when they see you are starting to come out of your anesthesia? Couldnt hurt to ask. Good luck!

UPDATE YOUR STATS; it makes it easier for others to answer your questions
I personally think instead of saying "someone" reacted, it should just tell u who. Maybe I'm just more curious than most...lol. Who knows

That was my thought as well. Mine calls for 4 servings of fruit a day. Thought it was very strange.
