December sleevers!

[CowgirlJane 14,259]

I bought some unflavored Unjury to put in other foods. Nutrionalist told me that really helps get the Protein in during the early months.

I have been stocking up on the stuff I need for after surgery.....so far I have the Isopure Alpine Punch drinks, the Unjury chicken broth, a few of the pure Protein Shakes, no sugar added carnation instant Breakfast, diet hot chocolate, extracts, splenda.....any other suggestions? I also got a small food processor.

Maybe stock up on bottled water..flavored Water if you like it. I also wonder if we could have sf suckers??

HI All,

I am on day 6 of a 14 day preop diet. Mine is 5 Protein Shakes and 1 Fiber broth or Jello. I am doing ok and haven't be tempted to cheat. But man does food smell good. I was out shopping today and smelled scrambled eggs. My mouths sarted watering and I don't even like eggs!

Good luck to everyone. Keep us posted.

My surgery is December 12th, I am feeling pretty excited. My preop diet is low carb, I am not hungry, but wow I miss my usual fruits and vegetables.

I have been trying to find a decent recliner off craigslist but so far, no luck. I thought I would enjoy it post op.

My surgery is on December 22, 2011 @ Mumbai, India. Will be leaving USA on December 17

My surgeon is Dr. Muffazal Lakdawala

I have started my pre-op liquid diet from today, little early to get my body adjusted!

Hi all! I'm pretty new to the forum--just been reading for a while. My surgery is going to be on 12/28 with Dr. Kelly in TJ. I'm super excited. I had a big bout of nerves a week ago, but I'm feeling better. Now I just want to get it over with! Pre-op diet starts on 12/13; right now I'm stocking up on Clear liquids. I'm not big on artificially flavored drinks, so finding stuff I won't turn my nose up at has been a challenge. But that's just details.

Best wishes to everyone!!

Im sleeved! Feeling good, still in some pain, trying to stay hydrated. Just left the hospital today.

Start my pre-op diet tomorrow. It's pretty generous, but I'm still not too confident about it. Wish me luck.

Hello,

My surgery date is Dec 8th. Surgeon Dr. Noel Williams w/ University of PA.

Pre-opt diet started 7 days ago and down 8lbs.

Start my pre-op diet tomorrow. It's pretty generous, but I'm still not too confident about it. Wish me luck.

Best of luck to you! It'd be great if you'd post your progress--I'm just a week or so behind you!

I've been having a Protein drink or two most days over the past month. I've found that it makes me less hungry than the all-carbs-all-the-time that I'm used to. Hopefully you'll find that as well.
