@kalimomof3 we have HEBs here so I will look for them.

@lovejones17. How is your husband feeling this morning..

I e-mailed the dietician the same question "can I have fruit water". I will post her reply later today.

Good luck and hope all goes well. I will not be sleeved till .Aug 29th. I am on 2nd day of 1st phase of pre-op. 2wks of low carbs high protein and 3rd week will be a liquid diet. Please keep me posted of your progress.

@soon2bemini..I bought them at Walmart

I am still in the Pre-op phase but I used the Chia seed and flaxseed (even before I considered surgery) to help me stay full. I mixed them in veggie shakes, salads , yogurt, and sometimes I just add them to my water bottle. I use 1 tbsp twice a day.

I am at pre-op phase 1 and I can not have fruit, but as soon as I can I am going to try different fruits as u guys suggested. Thank you all

Let me know what u think when u get the chance to taste it.

Has anyone tried putting a slices, peeled and seedless cucumber in water. I did and was very good. I left it overnight in the refrigerator. Mmm it was cool and refreshing.

Oops little less nervous.

Omg this is wonderful and helpful information...I am scheduled on Aug 29th . Thank you all for making me a little less nervous.. EXCITED IS WHAT I AM...

I just hope all goes well.

Hi I am getting nervous..I am 3 wks away from surgery 0829.. For the last 3-4 wks I have started a modified (lol) high protein low carb diet. I start my 3 wk diet tomorry. 2 wks of the high protein low carb, 3rd week is the dreaded liquid diet. I do really good at work but not so well at home. Any tips of how to be more strict on my diet at home?

Good luck. Prayers going your way...
