So my surgery is 4/24. I feel like I have a million things two to do, but really I don't. Maybe anxiety or maybe just stress from the Liver shrinking diet. My question to you guys are what to pack for my hospital stay, and must have purchases for the house for first few weeks. I have a husband and two little girls. Any advise?

I was terrified going in so understand your stress...I overbought so my advice is to not get much. Jello, sugar free popsicles, broth. You are not going to feel like eating much and if you're like me at all your tastes will change at first. I could not drink plain water for the first year..had to have flavor and be VERY cold. as for hospital stay just comfy clothes and a pillow for the ride home g ood luck it is a good thing you're doing

I took a body pillow to the hospital. It helped me to have something to hold against me right after surgery. I agree with the popsicles and broth. Make sure you own measuring cups and a good blender but I assume with kids, you have those already. :-) Good Luck!
