Getting started on things I will need in a few weeks. Trying to get a bunch of different basics since I am not sure how tastes will change. Any suggestions from folks who have done this?

Hi girl we share the same surgery date 11-8 and I'm also looking for things to buy for post op. I was thinking SF Jello SF tapioca crystal light broth purée some bean Soup SF Popsicles Protein smoothies oatmeal or cream of wheat. I see the Nut on Monday to pick up my pre op shakes and I will ask her for some ideas and then post. Good luck and YAY FOR US!

Yay Marta. We are surgery buddies. Keep me posted on your Pre op stuff and your progress.

All I can say is my taste buds did change. Things I really liked before the surgery made me nauseated. Don't buy too much because then you have alot left over.

Be careful about things with a strong smell as well. - during first month it would often make me gag.

Hi there girl. Have you started your pre op yet? I started on Tuesday and it isn't as bad as I thought it would be. I'm getting very nervous and excited. Let me know how you are doing

My surgery is on the 7th of November. Start preop on Friday. Tired of waiting. Tired of trying to lose weight. Anxious to start the rest of my life without this gut! *sigh*

I ate alot of jello preop and post op i couldnt even look at it ....

Pre op officially starts Wednesday. I am almost ready to just go start now. Can't wait but am dreading the Pre op diet if that makes any sense. I am so looking forward to beginning yet getting more trepidatious. Oh the emotional roller coaster. How are you holding up my fellow Novemberites.?

I did not have to do a pre-op diet, I stocked up on waters, ice pops, protein, soups.
