My doc only makes us do the pre-surgery diet for 5 days prior, so I don't have to start that until Jan 21st. I'm not looking forward to it!! I can have 3-4 carnation instant breakfasts (no sugar added), and very bland soft foods - no sugar added yogurt, plain cream of wheat or rice, unsweetened applesauce, pureed low fat Soup (max. 5-6/day) - and all the sugar free Jello & popsicles I want (oh, joy! **sarcastically said**). Is that what yours looks like? How long do you have to do yours for? I'd love to keep in touch. Not sure how to make 'friends' on the site, yet. I think there is a way, I just am too new to figure it out. If you figure it out, let me know, OK? Thanks!!

Hi Ocean Eyes - great name, too! I have two boys, and I always say my oldest has eyes the color of the sky, and my youngest has eyes the color of the ocean. Wish I had thought of clever names like you and Scared Skinny did! Exciting you're the same date as us, too. Have you started the pre-op diet? start mine the 21st. How did you get the chart with your weight info onto your posts? Would love to keep in touch with you as well, since we're the same date, too! Good luck!! k8

Thanks k8! It's an old nickname from college and yes...my eyes are blue. I started my pre-op diet last wednesday (2 weeks prior). It's about the same: 3 protien shakes, 1/2 oatmeal, 1 sugar-free Jello and 1 pudding,1 fat free yogurt, and 1 unsweetened applesauce. No caffeine and no soda.

As for the chart, it's pretty simple to put in the tracker. Just go to TickerFactory.com to customize your weight loss tracker. It will give you the code to use for web forums and blogs. Copy this information and then go to Profile>Change Signature and add the code in the Edit Signature block.

Let me know how it goes. Keep in touch. It would be great to have someone to talk to as we go through day by day.
