I am now 2 weeks tomorrow from surgery. To look back on your out of the hospital post op days.... is there something you wish you would have had but didn't at home to prepare for the next few days post op? I've got a large blender and I'm already dreading and complaining of not having enough kitchen counter space to leave it out on a daily basis for the puréed days. Does a hand held small wand type blender work good enough? Prob not on meats I assume. I don't wanna buy one and never use it. Thanks in advance! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

I must confess, I am 44 years old woman and been happily married for over 20 years. My hubby ALWAYS puts me and our 3 kids first and never allowed himself anything very nice vehicle wise. Well, a few months ago his truck was on its last mile and I practically MADE him buy a truck I just knew he loved. Him keeping his old truck was not so much a money issue as it was he would rather buy a kid a new bat or glove etc. We found the most awesome truck and I pretty much had to BEG him to buy it as the payment wasn't a problem. He is so genuine and so sweet that right out of the blue the other night he grabbed me in his arms and said... "Thank you"! I asked for what and his reply was.."for making me buy my truck". Now my confession... I almost hate it at the moment Bc I have to use the side step to get in and my knees almost all but scream at me to stop putting all my weight on them to get in the truck. I'm embarrassed. Come on 1/26/17 sleeve surgery! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Lol. That's a great idea using the kids step. Way fun too but With the hydraulic step rails that would be an excellent bday gift! We never spend money like that but this man has always put himself last so I would love to pull that off for a gift. Secretly though, he doesn't have to know the reason behind my question on here. Lol He will just call me "Best Wife Ever" Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thank you Wonder Woman! Love the name btw! Scary thing is I work in an Orthopedic office after many years working in OB. I see the horrible things that happen to knees, ankles , and hips under excess weight. I am so so so glad that I started this process before I took this job Bc now I'm almost to surgery day. 14 days and counting! Excess weight certainly causes problems.

Hello. Your March springtime surgery date is quickly approaching. Just think about how you will look but better yet how you will feel come fall time! Mine is on 1/26 and I'm looking forward to Christmas shopping next year already. This year I had knee hip and leg aches from all the walking. Didn't make it much fun! Good luck!

I'm having a duh moment. The Caramel Mocha shake I have heard so much about from premier... is it safe to say they must be adding coffee or chocolate whichever to the caramel shake or is there one called caramel mocha that I've just never seen? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Hi. I am 6 days into my 21 day pre-op diet and wanted to share for those who keep trying shakes. Premier Protein shakes (for me) is the best on the market. I have loved every flavor so far ( haven't tried caramel yet) and it's even enjoyed by our 12 year old very active- picky-eater son. Maybe I can help someone save a little money by encouraging you to try Premier first! Yum Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Absolutely amazing! What an inspiration!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I can't taste vitamin or grit in the pre made. Not that I've noticed anyhow.

Also wanted to ask what people make their powdered Protein drinks out of to make them taste as delicious as the Pre made ones. I ordered a tub of chocolate today from amazon but don't want to hurt the liver shrink during this pre op diet by mixing in too many calories, fat, etc. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

May I ask what medication and dosage you are on? Some meds definitely may be working against you since surgery and I like what High functioning fat said... hormone dumping is real! Congrats on your weight loss!! ❤️ Amy ❤️
