Guest guest Posted March 6, 2008 Report Share Posted March 6, 2008 Marie, What are you having done? where are you coming from? are you bringing somebody with you? I am coming from Boston, MA without a support person because my husband needs to stay home with our two girls and my friends all have families of their own. I have been eating a lot of cottage cheese, yogurt, chicken, protein drinks, jello, liquid vitamin, drinking a lot of water. I have both Slim fast and carnation instant breakfast shakes with added protein powder. How are you doing on your preop diet? > > , > > Where are you located?
