My pre-op started today with just broth, sugar free jello, sugar free popsicles and at least 20 grams of protein. That can come from milk, yogurt or protein drinks. I'm dying here because one of my co-workers was just talking about chicken and a bunch of other stuff I won't mention that just sent my head spinning. My diet lasts for a week so next week this time I will be banded (prayerfully). Good luck to you all.

My pre-op diet begins September 6th and my surgery is September 20th. I love smoothies and Soups so the liquid diet is not that big of an issue for me. Plus, I eat a lot of soup in the fall months, so this is all perfect timing.

I will mainly be doing smoothies, soups, SF posicles, and the like. My doctor said I can take soups that are chunky and puree them, as long as they are low in calorie and fat and have no chunks that the body would have to break down and digest.

Getting ready to start mine this Sunday and I am really nervous about it
