Get some sippy cups w no spill proof lids. Another good thing is to get sf Jello sf Popsicles and other clear stuff. At my preop class they told us everything to get and it will make ya feel better.

Get yourself a couple pretty plates child size like corning ware salad plates. Crystal light it will still count as a Water. I get the packets cause it just ads to a 16.9 oz.bottle. I'm starting to buy my tomorrow. Walmart. has sugar free muscle milk 100 calories 4 pack. I bought it to try and LOVE it!!! 15 grams Protein. Good luck!

I bought my muscle milk at Walmart, 4 pack for $5.98. I just bought 10 packs for $59.80. That's 40 bottles. If you have a Vitamin Shoppe near you they sell individual bottles if you want to try it. Syntex NectarNectar isolate is also good. Plus if you buy what they sell and don't like it you can return itit. For those of you that don't know, isolate means it will desolve better.

oh and my but said we can drink sugar free carnation instant Breakfast for your Protein Shake. Another drink (hard to find) is Special K Protein packets pink lemonade flavor. My daughter-in-law said she orders them from Amazon.com

Hello all! I had my appointment today with the surgeon. He agreed to complete my surgery, but is making me be smoke free for two months! He scheduled me for surgery 12/20. Glad to report I have not smoked in 3 days. It's been hell, but I'm doing it! Congrats to everyone who is in Nov. Good luck to you all!

Good luck. You can do it!!! I've been smoke free for 25 years. :) so I know it's not easy. Take the money you save for every pack of cigs you would havehave bought and take a little vacation with that money next year. Good luck again.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.
