    What vitamins did you take right out of surgery.. the first few weeks?? Flinstones complete? Gummies? Can we take Gummies when we are in the first couple of weeks post op??

  2. Liquid Diet Day One

    RachelinTX posted a topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
    Today is the first day of my liquid pre-op diet...WOW I am hungry! I cannot wait for my stomach to shrink a bit so these shakes fill me up! 14 more days until I am sleeved!!! So excited but scared at the same time!

  3. Getting sleeved in 3 weeks..have shake question

    RachelinTX posted a topic in Protein, Vitamins, and Supplements
    Good morning! I am getting sleeved on August 23rd (yay!) and just have a question or two about the protein shakes. Am I going to have to bring some with me to hospital?? Are they going to have me sipping on them, or do they provide their own? Also, am I able to just bring the premade ones and sip on those? (I like the EAS carb control chocolate fudge ones..I think they are in a purple/silver box). Thanks!!!

  4. My surgery date is August 23rd!

    That's awesome! How do you feel? I of course am getting some pre-surgery jitters..getting a tad nervous. I will be getting sleeved in Victoria, Texas. I've heard good things about my surgeon, so I am sure I am nervous for no good reason

  5. My surgery date is August 23rd!

    Hello everybody! I just registered on this site this morning, although I have been lingering around, reading posts for a few months now. I had a bit of trouble with BCBS, but finally got my sleeve approved and my date is August 23rd. I am so excited! Good luck to all of you other August sleevers!
