Post-op questions
You need to get your Protein first. Your body will literally eat your own lean protein. You will also need 48oz of Water and that includes the water in Protein shakes Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App

Preop diet
You're allowed sugar free Jello and s/f ice pops. That should help with sugar cravings Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App

Any October 2016 Sleevers?
Walk around a lot. Try to burp. It eases the pains. I was starving but I think it was actually a mental thing considering I still can even drink something till I get GI series. Feeling thinner already. There'll be extra room on the losers bench considering we won't be there long. Sent from my SM-G900V using the BariatricPal App s Doing great. My nurse just left from checking me out. She apparently stepped in /mdninwas in there. Still groggy/foggy. Looking forward ddto being home. Gas pains are going pretty good. Just settling in under my shoulder. Cat napping got me up after two hours of sleep. So far so good!!! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Jesus loves you!!! Gotta walk around every 2hs (to help gas movement) and inhale on the whatever it's called. I'll get better rest when I'm discharged, hopefully in another 12 hrs.

Hello everyone! I'm new...pre-op from Long Island
dinner. I usually eat a decent Breakfast and try to make lunch the biggest meal, giving the rest of the day to attempt to burn it off. Which made breakfast the second meal to replace. Seemed to work for me dropped 20-25lbs before pre-op diet. Sent from my SM-G360T using the BariatricPal App

Hello everyone! I'm new...pre-op from Long Island
liquid diet is not bad. Started replacing 1 meal with liquid in July(+ 48-64 oz water), after initial meeting with Dr.. Went to 2 meals inn August and 3 in mid-Sept. this way the transition to all liquids was easier. Something to consider. I think the brutally hot weather during those months aided my Water consumption.

Nicotine test
as long as u dont smoke you should be ok. you will probably get blood tested and will know your results by the time pre surgical testing is done
