Yours may be different, mine is

2 carbs choices only a day from the following: 1 slice bread, 1 weetabix, 2 new potato, 2 crackers, half jkt potato or 3 tbsp cereal (no sugar).
Veg choice 2 per day: 1 small bowl salad, 2-3 tbsp any veg. One fruit allowed per day also.
Milk/dairy 2-3 choices per day: 200mls milk, small pot yogurt, 1oz cheese, 4oz cottage cheese.
Protein 2-3 choices a day: 2 eggs, 2-3 oz beef, lamb, mince, poultry, oily fish. 3 slices lean bacon, 3 slices lean cold meat, 2 veg sausages.

Drinks water, no sugar fruit squash, tea, decaf coffee.

It's not too bad, I'm doing ok on day 6 at the moment. Your provider will let you know what to do as they have all your facts and know what's best. I'm glad I'm not on milk and yogurt as couldn't cope!!! Feel sorry for those who are I would definitely struggle. X

Thanks ...very kind of you....added you as a friend on fitness pal!

Hey the diet at Spire Manchester is low carb and low fat - lots of protein and veg, fruit and low fat yoghurt - which is good practice for after your op! I found it ok to do and certainly better than the diet shake option which I was initially going to do. I'm sure you'll be fine on it. If you got the Spire green booklet at your consultation it's on Page 25/26. xx

Thanks! R u on fitness pal? Didn't get the booklet but will ask Mary when I speak to her Monday...

I love my zumba! Can't do at moment as bad knee, just walking or on exercise bike very low level then a load of stretches. Hoping to restart zumba after the op, ooh I miss it so much, only exercise I like!!!
