marialisa, thanks for the reply! i too am on day 4 of pre-op dieting. i'm allowed 4 cans of slim-fast a day plus water and sugar-free jello(which i'm not eating,cause i hate jello!) but i've noticed that others on here have much more choices and most eat one lean meal a day. i never thought i would get so sick of chocolate flavor! so, is your surgery in canada considered out-patient? my surgeon is at the cleveland clinic in ohio.in the u.s. it is rated3rd in our nation. this gives me some comfort. i'll be in hospital for2-3 days. they'll give me a push button morphine pump! so i'm sure i'll be comfortable! really really stoned!though i tend toshy away from meds, i think i may need it. sounds like most complain about the gas pain in the shoulder area. so, are you scared, or just really anxious to get this done? i'm mixed. but i know this was the right decision for me. lisa6
