Hi Everyone, I am praying that You all can tell me what the daily post op diet consists of? I have been trying to think of all the things Iwill be doing.. after I have surgery of course. Like ..three small meals a day.. snacks? 3 a day? sipping water all day. I guess I am nervous. I would appreciate any info I can get. I know You all will help. Pattie

Pattie, I was nervous about this as well. No need to be. I try to stick with three small meals and two snacks. If I'm on the go, it's never a problem, because I can just grab an Atkins shake or a protein bar. Even the new Hood Carb Options Atkins yogurt smoothies are good when you're on the go. You should always try to get in as much water a day as you can, so yes you do tend to be sipping all day. Good luck, Maggie

Hi Pattie, Dr Aranow and his nutritionist will also give you some information on a food plan to follow. Every doctor has a different plan of action for their patients. With time you'll find out what works the best for you. Best of luck! -Deb
