Y'all these are really great ideas. Thank you. I don't know what to expect of the pre-op diet, but think I have a better sense post op. Everyone does it different, so I thought I'd ask. Looks like the Food Bank or the school will be getting a pantry full of stuff. I think I'm in the right headspace, but would like to come home from the hospital ready for 4 weeks of liquid and soft food. Baby food is a great idea....any particular types over another?
