    Congrats on your surgery!!!! My only advice would be to follow your doctor's/dietitian's orders to a "t." Don't drink 30 minutes before or after meals (once you can eat.) Try your absolute best to get in that protein and water, don't forget your supplements. The first week will probably be liquid, then full liquid, then soft foods, until you graduate to your low fat "regular" diet, which is really not "regular" at all because you will only be able to eat 1/4 to 1/2 cup of food as time progresses. Get your mind prepared if you haven't already. MFP is a great tool to help keep you on track and the more support you have the more successful you will be. Praying for you Monday!
