advice for 4weeks to go.

I would like some advice. I have exactly 4 weeks until my surgery. What should i be focusing on at this point as far as food, diet, portions. My bmi is 31 so i was told no preop diet is needed in fact dont lose weight because they won't be able to do the surgery. What type things helped you guys prepare yourself and help carry over after the surgery

Eat your meat first, vegetables second, carbs third. Chew everything up really super well. Do not drink any liquids with your food and wait 1/2 hour after you eat.

These are things you suppose to be doing after surgery. Make sure you start getting used to drinking 64 ounces of Water a day.

Stay positive. Go through your clothes, find smaller clothes now, clean out the closets. Prepare for smaller clothes (don't buy them).

Keep your mind busy, do not carb overload the week before surgery. Stop drinking caffeine prior to surgery because you can't have it after for a bit and having withdrawals can still happen, after surgery.
