    I went shopping this weekend for my pre-op liquid diet phase. I bought:

    • cream soups (chicken, mushroom, broc & cheese - all will need to be strained)
    • AdvantEDGE Protein Shakes
    • G2
    • Campbell's Squash Bisque - SO SO GOOD
    • Chicken Broth
    • Flintstone Vitamins
    • Gas X strips for the hospital
    • So much Jello
    • Pudding

    A friend at work also talked me into signing up for Juice Plus supplements. I'm certain that these will help with my recovery and prevent hair loss. I feel like I'm forgetting to get something!!!
