I am glad you got a reply & that you have a date now.

I am doing great thank you & really pleased to be on soft food stage. Xmas was hard seeing everyone else tucking into Xmas food & treats. Its difficult cos I still have some cravings for stuff that I know is not good (chocolate - which melts & slips down too easy !!! A lot of it around at Xmas) but then if I give in & have too much I end up feeling horribly nauseous - not pleasant. And I certainly cannot eat huge meal portions like I use to. I keep having to remind myself that this is a 'tool' & that I still have to make the right choices. The pre op diet is hardest with no "tool" in place.

Do let me know how things are for you - I look forward to hearing your progress.
