  1. Are you able to put anything on your tuna salad
  2. How are you doing? I see you a lot on the same threads.
  3. Praying for you. God's in control.
  4. My Prevacid is solutab, Lortab is liquid and others I crush. I brought a pill crusher for 4.00 at Walmart that is excellent. My surgeon only wants liquid or crushed and mixed in liquid. I would be concerned about swallowing tablets, capsules yet.
  5. I'm 10 days post-op and I either have liquid or crush and mix in water. Some of it is nasty but i just take it.
  6. I had a JP drainage for 8 days
  7. Today was a hard day for me. It's the 13th of 24 days. I could not tolerate but one shake today. I'm drinking my fluids and had some chicken broth. Tommorrow will be better.
  8. Mines consist of 4-5 bariatic advantage shakes. Water. I can have a instant oatmeal with the protein powder. In place of shake once a day. I can also add fresh fruit or NSA frozen fruit to the shakes. I have 21 days total. 15 left
  9. I'm 3rd day of pre-op diet. My head feels like a elephant is sitting on it. I know it wiil get better. I won't lie and say it's not tough but being able talk about it and know I'm not alone is so helpful.
  10. I am day 2 of 21 day diet. The headaches are horrible. I hope that it gets better as i progress. I am during the Bariatric Advantage 4- 5 shakes a day and drinking my water. I'm not allowed anything else.
  11. 3 weeks . I start tommorrow
  12. How do you take your pre-op medicine post-op? Do you crush them and mix in water? What about the extended release capsules or tablets?
  13. I am preop as well. The fear of having complications is so strong. I am mentally trying to prepare myself. I know that the way I feel now is not good and I'm definately not healthy. Being able to express my concerns and knowing that I'm not alone is so helpful.
  14. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
  15. Praying for you both . God's got it!!
  16. I am preop and also love coffee in the am. i will also drink decaff tea but my question is can we have real lemon juice or is that something that is difficult to tolerate.
