Ok. Before signing off I noticed that I had some comments to my previous posting. A) that's pretty cool, I didn't know you could comment and I'm not sure how to best respond except in another post? If there's something better, please advise. Anyway, many thanks to all of your well wishes - please consider them equally returned :confused3:. I found out more details about my pre-op diet today and while I am allowed non starchy vegetables, the main point is to keep the daily caloric intake between 500-700 per day. That's a big cut for me. Today I've had 4 regular slimfast cans and water. I thought maybe I could drink unlimited slimfast but not so. The diet is called LSD (Liver Shrinking Diet) and is to be low carb, low fat, and low sugar. To the person who asked about tea - unfortunately my answer is no. I'm traditionally a strong black tea drinker but I think the other part of that equation really for me was the sugar. I tried many different artificial sweetners in the tea but it wasn't the same w/o the copious amounts of sugar added. I have some decaf green tea in the cupboard that I'm planning on brewing tomorrow. If it's any good I'll post the brand. Thx for the responses and here's to all of our current and future success!
