Just left Target' date=' my store does not have gas-ex strips, grrr[/quote']

I got mine at albertsons but I believe Walmart cvs Walgreens have them. One thing I did forget was the biotene for dry mouth. I have read a lot of sleevers say this came in handy. Don't forget that one.

Week 1- clear liquids:protein shake, sf Jello & popsicles, broth, diet b-8 splash

Week 2 & 3 - full liquids: cream soups(no lumps or bumps), drinkable yogurt, plus stuff from week 1

Week 4- add in mashed potates, cream of wheat, grits, oatmeal

This is just what I can remember off the top of my head.

What are you packing for the hospital?

[iPrincess 39]

I haven't packed yet. I have been trying to get my kids things together and so forth. Probably Monday when kids are off to school I will pack my bag and make sure I have everything. Are you packed?

[getnsknyntx 11]

Pack a extension cord for your phone charger also if you have long hair braid it use a rubberband with no metal or you wake up with your hair in a mat in the back of your head.

Oh didn't think about extension cord thanks!! And have short hair so no worries about that

I learned the hard way my phone had to be far away to charge.

I'm scheduled for the 25th too!! I have my broth, Protein mixes, Vitamins, and my Soups for the next phase. Still haven't packed anything. I think I am still having a hard time believing it's so close now.

Hello Klperry, I know what you mean about the date being close. Just a while ago it was July for me that's when I received my surgery date. I think everything became real last week when I went in for pre op testing.

Thanks I didn't think about that but I will pick one up.
