Hello everyone! Well, my surgery is tomorrow and I'm all set with my Vitamins shakes etc... I'm so excited and ready!!!!! Can anybody please share some recipes or maybe cookbooks you recommend? Also, can anybody give some word of advise. Maybe something you wish you would have known about the after effect etc... Anything would help!!! Thanks in advance!!!

Your taste buds may change after surgery, so be prepared to experiment until you find the right combination that works for you. After surgery getting in the liquid, Protein and Vitamin requirements will initially be much more important than food. You body will sustain itself by converting fat into energy.

Good luck on your surgery and I pray everything goes well for you.
