Although I haven't had surgery yet, and will probably be feeling the same in the coming weeks, I will try to keep in mind the 6 months of preparation for this along with the long term benefits. That way I can tell myself "it sucks, but it's only a couple weeks" Keep strong! Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

My surgeon told me no carbonation pre & past op, including seltzer Water. I would say no, but check with your surgeon. Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

I bought the isolate zero carb vanilla and low carb chocolate. I have been experimenting with different flavors by adding sugar free jello (0.75 grams per 8 oz shake). Got some great concoctions! Cheesecake, peanut butter cup, butterscotch, white chocolate, even splitting the 0.75 portion between combined flavors just to keep it interesting! So far I have gotten some really good flavors. I am mixing with just cold water, but you can also do this with low fat milk (I use FairLife) A friend of mine runs a shake shop, so gonna get some ideas from him and will post. All are high protein and 0 sugar, LOW CARBS! Just another suggestion, Add 4 cubes of ice, blend for a minute and you've got a smoothie! Blend for 2 minutes with ice, then freeze, you have a great dessert! I'd love to hear other recipes as well! Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

I take cholesterol and blood pressure medication now, scheduled for surgery a week from today. I am curious to know how these meds are handled following surgery during the recovery weeks (liquids only and soft foods stages). They are both large pills, so will I have to crush and put in the liquids (they both taste nasty, so hopefully not), or will I just hold off until I am at solids stage again?

I am scheduled for next week and curious, I understand the pain meds cause constipation. Is it better to get off the meds sooner to avoid this and just bite the bullet on pain using Tylenol and heat pads? Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

Good luck! Look forward to hearing your updates Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App

I would ask your nutritionist and/or Doctor. Although I'm sure the trainer is very good, your nutritionist and Doc probably are more informed about you and health requirements. Are you pre or post? Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App
