    Too much time off work

    They told me about a week but count on working half days for a week after that because I will be tired
  6. Same here I have been on preop for five days and have lost seven. A littler tired and grumpy but yesterday someone actually asked if I lost weight. She said she noticed it in my face right away. Made me feel great!!!
  7. Try adding some vanilla extract to the vanilla shake. That's what my nut told me.
  8. Surprisingly my family has been totally behind me with some reservations from my eldest children. However the one I truly hated to tell was my boss. Her teasing gets to the point of bullying sometimes. I know this will be held over my head at work.
  9. Did u know ahead of time that there was going to be a hernia repair or did they find it necessary when doing the surgery. I have seen many people mention this part of the surgery Christy

    Pre-Op Shakes are AWFUL!

    My nut has me starting my preop today. shakes I was told to use are the EAS shakes. I have had them before in the past and I remember they are tolerable. Any better suggestions. Are the premier ones comparable in Protein and calories? BTW if you live near a Publix the EAS ones are on sale this week Christy in Tallahassee FL
