I'm going to try the benefiber..thank you for sharing cuz milk of magnesia is NASTY!!!

All milk is a no-no for my sleeve...I've tried fat free, almond milk, rice, etc. As far as Crystal light substitutes my nutritionist recommended Fuze Slenderize (not the energy flavors) Sobe Life Water (ditto on the energy flavors), sugar-free Kool-Aid packets added to bottle water and sugar-free popsicles for hydration. Hope these suggestions help you all too.

I was on clear liquids for a week. Now I am on "creamy" liquids and runny "mushies" for another week (I cheated with the mashed potatoes). Next week I start "mushies" for 2 weeks. My 2 week post-op appt is next Tuesday and I'm hoping everything is going as good inside as it feels like it is.

My surgery date was 10/9, I ate chicken broth, drank Fuze Slenderize, lots of water, sf popsicles, jello, etc. I advanced to creamy soups yesterday and ate an oz of instant mashed potatoes. Everything seems to be going down fine. I haven't had any nausea from foods. But, if I feel the urge to use the bathroom and I don't go right away, I get extremely nauseated....its very weird.

October 9th for me..4 days and counting. I was originally scheduled for 9/11 but I had time reschedule for work related issues. My surgeon required a one week NutriMed diet, which I started on 10/2. I'm doing good but I would pay money for a piece of bread right now..lol!

I ended up downloading a ticker from a different site.

I am having ticker issues too. The countdown ticker is showing the wrong date....I have changed it about 10 times but it never displays the correct date. It's driving me coo-coo! Any help is much appreciated.
