This has caused a couple of operations so far and I havent been on the bike in over 2 months and this stopped all progress. I am scheduled for another operation that will put me off the bike for probably about another 2 months or more. I guess the positive side is its winter and I wouldn't ride that much anyway.
You have my sympathy. I've had some "work done" in that area as well, and it's amazing how debilitating the pain can be. I am lucky enough to have been able to (mostly) keep riding.
Take a look at the South Beach Diet stuff - the original book is good, and I think they have some good recipe books as well. I don't think much of their foods, however...
