  4. WOW. Surgery date for me is 9/2... One week to go. And this post is everything that is running through my mind right now. EVERYTHING. Knowing that I'm not the only one who's thinking it is reassuring!!! Like you, I'm doing it, no matter what. No turning back. But that doesn't change what is going through my mind!!! I feel for your insecurities but I am so grateful that you've expressed them!!! You're not alone!! Luck!!

  18. The brand for both the bars and the shakes is Proti and it's not an option to switch I talked to the nutritionist today and she suggested I try freezing it and then chipping it off to eat it. I'm going to try that today and see if I can manage that. 3.5 days down, 10.5 to go!
  19. Try broth. You've got this! Sent from my KFFOWI using the BariatricPal App Unfortunately, broth isn't an option. 3 shakes, 2 bars, 1 black coffee or tea and unlimited water for 2 weeks. What I would do for a cup of broth right now Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  20. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Should specify... East Coaster here... I'm a few hours away from Vancouver too. Like more than 6. And by plane. Hahaha
  21. I am over this pre op diet!!! shakes and bars that are too sweet. The only thing not sweet is the Water. And that seems to be all I can get down without gagging. 3 days down, 11 more to go. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
  22. Oops... I was in the wrong place too... September 2015! Here I am, 11 days from my sleeve surgery- September 2/16!! The sweetness of the shakes and bars are torture and so far, I haven't been able to get through my daily intake of it. Anyone else having trouble? And any September Sleevers from Canada??

  23. I'm scheduled for September 2/16!! I'm on day 3 of my 2 week pre-op liquid diet and struggling. I'm having a hard time getting the sweet shakes and sweet Protein bars down and my pre op diet only includes shakes, bars, Water and one cup of tea or coffee a day. So far, I haven't been able to actually get all 3 shakes and 2 bars down each day. Hoping that isn't going to be a problem when I go for my one week pre op appointment. Anyone else having trouble with the sweetness?! I'm excited though. And nervous. But mostly excited!!

  25. I'm scheduled for the 2nd of September. I'm on the pre op diet now and having a hard time with it... I can't get the shakes and bars down. They're so sweet. On a positive note, 3 days in, 9 lbs down and only 11 days until the surgery! I'm nervous and stoked and hangry and excited. How're you doing with it? Where are you from?
