A week until surgery

I am a week before my surgery and I am starting to get really really nervous. Are there any suggestions from anyone as to how the "diet" is afterward and how they handled the whole food intake change?

I was sleeved on 3/7 and can tell you I am still adjusting to the food intake. I give myself an hour to eat whatever it is I'm having, greek yogurt, protein shake, sugar free pudding, broth, etc.. I throw out whatever is left after an hour. Good luck

Hi!

I am just a week out and do just what the other poster suggested. Give myself enough time to eat slowly. And, I'm all about trying to things at this point. There are several sweet choices for post-op but not all that many for savory so I've gotten creative. Regardless, I can't WAIT to get to my three week appt to have my diet advanced. Good luck to you!
