Sept 9 surgery date

Just found this site, thanks to another OH member.  My surgery, lap RNY, is scheduled for 9/8.  My doctor has us do a pre-op diet of 3 Carnation Instant Breakfast, no sugar added type and 2 Lean Cuisine/Healthy Choice type meals each day.  I am supposed to be on a soft diet as soon as I go home from the hospital. I know a lot of the usuals for a soft diet (protein shakes, cottage cheese, puddings, SF popsickles, etc) but any other ideas/suggestions for the soft diet?
Good luck to everyone.  Just think how we will all look/feel by Christmas!!!

I just wanted to say congrats .. We have the same surgery date..

Congratulation on your date and welcome to the September's losing team

Check out Bariatriceating.com. They have some great recipes there. Low fat Cream soups are soothing the first little while. Sugar free applesauce is also yummy. My date's September 9th. Good luck to you. See you on the Loser's bench real soon. You're lucky- my nut says no solid food for the whole two weeks before. Only Carnation Breakfasts. I think even chocolate will get old, huh? Peace. 

good luck. I am scheduled for the 9th also...
