I start my Pre-op 2 week diet this week. Surgery is February 17! My question is this, I know we've all prepared the best we can, by researching, talking and asking questions, but the thought just occoured to me that I haven't seen anyone say they were surprised by anything... After all your research, classes, phych visitis, prep... Was there anything that you thought you were ready for that turned out to be totally different or unexpected? Was there anything you wished you had know?

Went to Sam's and picked up some Premier Protein! I've got like 3 different types of Protein powders that I'll be trying out to see what I like best. My doc has me starting my 2 week pre-op on Feb 2. 4 Protein shakes + 1 lean meat and 2 cups green veg at dinner. Driving myself to FL on the 16th for pre-op and surgery is Feb 17th! I'll be you tubing for encouragement to other "older" women! I'm 50 with two pre-teen boys! I'll post when I get one loaded

Every surgeon has different guidlines for post surgery. I'm having mine on Feb 17th in FL. My surgeon has me on puree right away, progressing to solids in about 1 week. I will still need a minimum of 40 gr of protein in shakes daily for the first year. I found Premier Protein at Sam's for a good price!

I'm bringing gas x, lip stuff, and some biotene spray. I've been told the dry mouth is terrible! Sent from my XT1565 using the BariatricPal App

My husband and I found some very BAD stuff about Almanza, DO NOT use him! I spent quite a bit of time talking with @BillYanez at Bariatric Team Mexico, about Dr Illan. We decided to stay stateside, because I found a surgeon nearby that was affordable, but I would give Bill Yanez a call. They're very affordable and really cover all your bases. He was informative and easy to talk with. Very accomodating.

How did it go I have mine on Friday and I'm thinking the same ???? Sent from my N9132 using the BariatricPal App Thanks! It went fine! She was asking questions tho help determine what i would need to concentrate on post surgery. She was easy to talk to! No problem!I did need to reschedule from the 7th to the 17th so all my pre op stuff could get to the surgeon. 50 year old me!!

I have my Phych clearance interview today! Please pray that she doesn't think I'm too crazy!

Check out dr Amit Taggar at Bariatrix Fl! I found him on line. I've had a Skype consult, scheduled my surgery, they faxed my orders for bloodwork & xrays. My surgery is $7800!!!! It covers paperwork, consult, surgery, 2 nights in the hospital and post surgical visit. I'm paying cash for my blood, xray, psych clearance and 2 nights hotel. So far it looks yup be under $10,000 complete! 50 year old me!!
