Is anyone else having trouble getting in all of their shakes/meals? My preop consists of 3 Protein Drinks & 2 cups of plain yogurt......and for a couple of days I've missed one of the shakes.< /span>

I've been practicing taking small bites with the yogurt.....yesterday it took me 45 minutes to eat 1/2 a cup of yogurt---then I was full (or uninterested, don't know which), but I couldn't take another bite...and had to put the remainder in the fridge for later. Anyone else experience this? Thanks.

I'm not having trouble getting them in. I need to get an itty bitty spoon though.

Endoscopy and Psych evaluation done...I guess this is really going to happen! I just guzzled down a fruit punch Protein Drink and it was absolutely disgusting! I'm rewarding myself for getting it down with some chicken broth. I gave up sugar and caffeine last week' date=' so no headache so far.[/quote']

I'm also Aug 6th - in TJ Mexico. Today I start my clear liquid diet (and take a laxative to kick off the fun). Anyone else have to do the clear liquid diet for 3 days (or less)? Are the Isopure (clear Protein drinks) allowed?

I'm planning on a last run to Walmart to pick up a few things to take with me that I don't already have around the house. I'll be staying for a week afterward in a hotel suite with a kitchenette. Here's my packing list (for out of town surgery): Nightgowns, T-shirt Dresses, Slip-on Sandals, Sports Bras/Low Cut Panties, Pillow, Heating Pad, Extension Cord, Thermometer, Earplugs, Toiletries Bag w/Toothbrush, Chapstick, Lotion, Facial Wipes, Gas X Strips, sugar free hard candy, Clear Liquids, Full liquids, shaker bottles, Strainer (for soup), Demitasse Spoon, Cooler (for the car trip), Dish Soap, Vitamins, coffee Stirrers (to use as a mini straw), Nook, iPad, Phone & their chargers, Laundry Basket with Detergent Pods, Softener Sheets & Color Catcher Sheets, and my paperwork for testing I had done in my hometown. I'm also thinking of some small board games & puzzles. Any thoughts? Am I missing anything I might need in the first week away from home?

Laying in bed, thinking of doing my vlog, and realizing I need a script!

Heading out...last time I drove down to Houston a car in front of me kicked up a huge piece of metal mesh and it ripped out my wheel well liner. I'm hoping I have better luck this time.

I wished I had some travel wed mild mouthwash. The combo of ketosis and surgery left me with something less than a fresh mouth

WARNING....THIS MAY BE TMI........

Need some input......I'm on day 1 of the clear diet protocol........and complete diarrhea......is anyone else having this?

I don't feel ill, no temperature.......feels like when I did a colonoscopy.......everytime I drink, 5 minutes later I'm heading to the bathroom.....I'll call the dr's in the morning.....but wondering if anyone else is having this too.

Thanks!
