Doriana,
I wouldnt worry to much about the throat thing. Remember that your trying to shrink your liver and pretty much purge your whole body. Drink lots of water. The pre-op diet, in any other way, except for pre-surgery, would just suck. It's the fact that the surgery is just around the corner is what makes it okay. Hang in there. And ya, hunger is there, you will truly be soooooooooo sick of cottage cheese and yogurt, but keep eating it if your hungry. Try sending a pm to woody's. She had some real great ideas to spruce up the pre-op. Smile!!!!!
