I just picked up some cream of pumpkin and cream of broccoli soup. The pictures on the boxes don't show any lumps, but I got cheesecloth too! They also had cream of squash. Sent from my HTCD200LVW using the BariatricPal App

You just need to be careful with Protein and Calcium. The zygote would not have been implanted yet the next day, you you weren't technically pregnant. You'll probably be healthier with your new diet! CONGRATULATIONS! Is this your first?! Sent from my HTCD200LVW using the BariatricPal App

I'm telling everyone because it will keep me accountable. So far little discouragement! Sent from my HTCD200LVW using the BariatricPal App

I don't know about the Crohns and I currently live premier. But have you tried Muscle Milk 100?I'd be interested to know if you find a " clean", palatable Protein shake! Sent from my HTCD200LVW using the BariatricPal App

I was hoping to, but I changed jobs and my new job doesn't have it! Find out how many pre-op tests you'll need. (EGD, cardio clearance, pulmonary clearance, sleep study, psyche clearance, lab work, etc) You'll need co-pays for all those. I actually met my deductible, which was $1200. I only needed Multivitamins and Calcium pre-op. Hope this helps! Sent from my HTCD200LVW using the BariatricPal App

My nut says your body has to take a break from losing every 20-40 pounds to redistribute the fat. You don't lose it evenly. Otherwise you would be lumpy! Bump up your Water and walking. It's a process! You're doing great! Sent from my HTCD200LVW using the BariatricPal App

I left a much loved doctor because of that! I would mention it to him/her. I guess I'm really lucky because my surgeon's office team is awesome! Sent from my HTCD200LVW using the BariatricPal App

I am pre-op and I have tried Premier and Pure Protein. I love Premier, hopefully I can still tolerate it post-op! Pure Protein is too thick for me. I definitely want to go back to real food as quickly as possible! Sent from my HTCD200LVW using the BariatricPal App

My surgeon suggests 4 weeks. My boss is fine with that. I'm a home health nurse, so it's a lot of driving and sitting. Nowhere near the intensity of a staff nurse! Sent from my HTCD200LVW using the BariatricPal App

Please let us know how it turned out! Sent from my HTCD200LVW using the BariatricPal App

I'm worried about the liquid diet too! Thanksgiving falls halfway through it! I guess I'll find out how supportive my family is going to be! Sent from my HTCD200LVW using the BariatricPal App
