Today I'm working then hanging out at home alone tonight since my hubby is working til 10:30. I might bring my two dogs to the off-leash dog park weather permitting. I've purchased one of the books that Sudbury has recommended I read : Weight loss surgery for Dummies. I will start reading it today however I can't imagine I'll learn very much from it since I've done so much research already.

It looks like a pretty darn good preop menu (certainly better than mine), but when looking to post op, I would drop the bagel in favour of a pure protein like an egg or meat as well as the breton crackers. Semi sweet chipits (you could stop at 10? WTG), will have to be a very rare treat, but there are sugar free varities.
Way to go on being so proactive. I would suggest that you log this into Myfitnesspal or something like this to ge an idea of your protein to carb ratio. It really helped me to tweak my menu and dump things that just weren't worth the carbs.
All the best!
