I am legit hungry tonight
Hold on...it only gets worse lol. Lol- I’m joking-but it’s good to mentally prepare yourself prior to surgery because you will have the same challenge after surgery. I promise the cravings don’t go away. If you can tackle the challenge now, it will be a lot easier for you after surgery.

November Sleevers - 2 Days Post-Op Update
Try Unjury or Premier Protein shakes. I like Unjury better though. I’m 2 weeks post op and quite tired of this clear liquid phase. Sigh...?

Have you tried Bariatric Advantage chewables?- 5 days post op
Hang in there! I’m sure you will come to love the decision you made. My stomach rumbles for a few days as well. I am 7 days post op and I feel like I’m starving. Mind over matter. You will get through this. However...keep your eye on the pain levels & follow your doctors instructions.- Late October Sleeves
I had mine on the 28th. I’m not having any reflux issues. But I’ve heard it’s not uncommon. Just give it a little time.- Protein shakes besides Bariatric advantage that you like?
Unjury is good too!- Question about pre-op diet
Hello, I’m no expert-but I believe every doctor requires different things. Meaning, your pre-op instructions may differ from another persons. For example-I was instructed to do a 3 day liquid diet, and others that I know personally were instructed to do a 2 week liquid diet. As far as any tips/guidance that may help you later-I was instructed to get into the habit of not drinking while eating, taking bites of food the size of an almond, and getting into a constant habit of eating around the same times each day for my meals. You can also get a head start by eating clean, and protein enriched meals.- October 2019 surgery peeps?
Good Morning! My surgery date is scheduled for October 28th! I thought I would have a little more time to prepare, however-I have no complaints lol. - I’m starting to despise my chewable vitamins...
