Hey Renee!
Thanks for the encouragement. I can't believe it is so close now - yeesh!
The diet is apparently to shrink the liver as much as possible and clean the bowel. 2 weeks purees (anything you can give a baby less than 6months old) and 2 weeks before surgery I start on liquids only- this shrinks the stomach. It's a pain in the tushi but I trust my surgeon so will follow his every advice!

I cant believe how much weight I've lost already since January... very unlike me!
