  1. If you don't mind me asking, where do you get those? Are the Blissful pre-made?
  2. This may sound weird but I'm using mio with a scoop of unflavored whey protein in it.
  3. I told my 17 year old daughter what I almost did and she texted back "Just image the hard gristle things that usually come in sausage. Like you bite down and it's hard and almost breaks ya tooth. Nasty" lol.
  4. I started my pre-op diet today and I actually wavered. I literally dreamt about sausage gravy and homemade biscuits. I swear I almost got up and made it for breakfast. I thought "well 13 days of pre-op will be fine". So... I got up and had my shake. Stupid head hunger.
  5. Me too. Started pre op today. Surgery the 18th
  6. Mine is a shake for Breakfast Snack consisting of either sf pudding or sf yogurt mixed with unflavored Protein powder or a liquid mixed with it. Lunch: Half a shake, lean protein and cup veggies Another snack as above. Dinner: same as lunch At least 64 oz of Fluid That's for 11 days. After that liquids only. I was told the want you to have an abundance of protein to promote healing.
  7. We have u in our thoughts. I'm definitely sending positive vibes your way. It's normal to get cold feet and last minute jitters. Ask them to give you something for your anxiety and they will.
  8. We are pulling for ya! I know it's crazy waiting!!! You'll do wonderfully!
  9. Definitely wanna wish our February 3rd sleevers the best of luck as you kick off our group!!!!! We are thinking and praying for you guys today!!! April
  10. Girl, u know I'll be updating u. Waking you up from your phone going off. Lol
  11. I'm in Oklahoma. Unfortunately we get ice. But I'm gonna take it super slow and safe. I'll holla once I get there.
  12. Of course we get an ice storm. The day before my pre-op. I'm supposed to have a chest X-ray, EKG, final labs, meeting with the surgeon and her PA and my prep class. All tomorrow. 3 hrs away. I'm chancing it anyway. I'm leaving between 3-4am to be able to drive slow and careful. Jeez
  13. There are some leak tests, especially in Mexico, that are performed using a drain. You drink this blue dye like substance and if it comes out in the drain, you're leaking. Just as drains can PREVENT infection, they can also be a SOURCE of infection so some Drs do not use them.
  14. Hi LeighAnne! I'm having mine done by Dr Lana Nelson in Norman, Oklahoma. I'm an okie girl. Lol I've never been to NC, but hear it's got great summers. Do you have your hospital list made yet??
  15. If u don't like the taste of plain Greek yogurt you can mix in a little from a crystal lite packet or mio and sweeten it up. Other people even use sf torani syrups.
  16. I know when I'm guzzling I get them and they are so awful!!! Especially lying in bed at night omg. Lol
  17. Since you're drinking so much water you may wanna watch out for leg and foot cramps. It can flush out the potassium in your body. If you get them you can take a potassium supplement along with magnesium. Just a heads up.
  18. Bariatric fusion has one too, but the about time is all natural with only 5 pronounceable ingredients.
  19. Same here y'all. I'm cramping like no other so it's gonna be here any day and I start pre-op in 4 days.
  20. You're detoxing from caffein/carbs/sugar. Give it a few days. It will get better
  21. Bariatric Advantage tears me up. It literally felt like I had food poisoning I was running to the bathroom so much. I think some ppl just can't tolerate some of it. It may have been the flavoring though so let us know once u get the unflavored in
