I started drinking Soups like mushroom broth and Tomato Soup but I noticed that they have a high sodium content. Is anybody else doing organic clear or soups with their pre op diet?

Thank you !!!!! I need much encouragement. I have a huge list of comorbidities. I am 48' date=' 5'4" with a wt of 274 . I want to do this I'm tired of being sick and tired. I just don't want to be a repeat failure. One of my girlfriends has Gastric bypass over 1 yr ago and she looks wonderful. I'm tired of being the big girl in the group with the pretty face. Ok enough ranting and raving. :-)

Excellent! Best of luck to you too. What do you have to accomplish between now and then? I have to attend a meeting with the bariatric team (have to miss the second day of school for it!) Meet with the anesthesiologist and meet with my own surgeon again. There may be more but I'm not sure yet. Did the egd a few weeks ago.

Thanks. I have a pre op nutrition class 9/4, pre op testing and admission to hospital 9/17. I will ask about the edg but I think they will do it while I'm out.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
