Hi..I'm new here and so glad to have found this site. My date for surgery is this Fri the 24th. I meet with my surgeon again tomorrow for my pre op appt. My Dr. has not put me on a pre op diet, just 2 days prior to cut out caffeine and most carbs. I will most likely stick to protein drinks. For the last 6 months I have done nothing but wish my appt would hurry and get here , I must admit I'm a little nervous now , but eager to get going on my journey. I wish you all the best of luck and will be back after surgery. ???? Heres some ???? for all you who are in recovery. Cyn
