I have a business trip scheduled during the pre-op 2 week liquid diet phase. I was wondering if anyone has encountered this obstacle or has any suggestions about how to do this. I've found out I can request a fridge in my room, so I'm not worried about Breakfast. lunch is served at the conference site and dinner is generally at various restaurants with colleagues. I cannot cancel this trip and do not want to postpone my surgery date. It's already taken so long to get through the ins approval process. Thanks for any advice you might have!

My physician uses the Realize band because it is newer with improvements made in cc volume and flexibility he says. However, he said both work fine and he was okay if his patients preferred the other.
