It seems every surgeon has different rules before and after surgery. I'm stuck with Clear Liquids for the next 5 days, then I get to add cottage cheese, oatmeal, and pudding............it's not much but I can't wait. I started the pre surgery liquid diet on 12/19, that sucked pretty bad through 3 family Christmas dinners. However I made it through it. It hopefully is down hill from here.

Good luck to all of us!!!!!!

Congratulations!
