Thank you so much!! I agree wholeheartedly. From reading different posts, it looks like just about every doctor and program is different. Some docs don't have a pre-op diet, mine had a very strict 8 day pre-opo diet. I stuck with it...not one bite of food passed my lips for 8 days. I thought that the pureed phase wouldn't be so bad but it was. When I read that I could add tuna, I was in heaven!
