robinriley64@yahoo.com got a reaction from Hiraeth in Pre-OP Diet
Crystal light was my favorite drink. just know at first it is hard to get all 64oz in. I did about 24 at most the first few weeks. drinking cold drinks did not feel good at first but got better. hot tea was easier to drink. Also getting all your Proteins in are also a challenge. you may try Protein powder to help even though some Dr's say no. do it anyway because not getting your Protein, Iron and Vitamins can cause more hair loss. Just remember. it will be a bit tough at first but YOU are worth it and you have a family here to support you. Good luck and God bless you

Thanks for your response! Unfortunately, this is a liquid diet.
I will definitely drink broth. I noticed that, in the past, I got so full from drinking the leftover broth from chicken noodle Soup. I think it's definitely the heat that makes me feel fuller.

robinriley64@yahoo.com reacted to Pup in For Those Who Work, How long were you off?
I had RNY and took 4 weeks...I could have easily went back at 2 weeks but went ahead and took the extra couple weeks to just enjoy being off. I did yard work and spent time learning more about my new diet.
My opinion, 4 weeks is a nice amount of time...even though physically I could have went back sooner, it was nice to take the extra couple weeks to just mentally wrap my head around my new lifestyle.
