do you mean the day of surgery or today? I'm pretty sure you can't eat or drink before surgery - but today tea sounds good!

Today...can't have anything after midnight tonight..but what to eat today...soup for breakfast, lunch and dinner??? Blech..I may never eat clear soup again, after all this is done...

I wasn't allowed to eat after 6 p.m. on the evening before my surgery, and I couldn't drink after midnight. This made it pretty easy to not have to worry about breakfast :P

Eat???? What's that. I haven't been allowed to "Eat" for 2 weeks now...but have been able to have full liquids...until yesterday at noon...then straight on to clear liquids until midnight. I guess soup it is...sigh.

My surgery is tomorrow also. I've been on a clear liquid diet for 7 days. Its awful. I've snuck some crackers here and there. For breakfast, I ate the "eggs' that my doctors office gave me but honestly soup would be better!

Soup sounds good! At some point the labels of "breakfast food", "lunch food", and "dinner foods" fall away and you start looking for things that give the most protein. I'll eat chicken for breakfast because it has more protein than an egg. Pork loin too. Right now, for me, food is just fuel. Good luck tomorrow and remember how good that soup tasted today :)
