The hospital told me to only brush my teeth and take my meds with a sip of water...nothing else for 12 hrs before surgery. No gum, mints or anything the morning of. If I did have any of that, it would delay or cancel my surgery.

I am very happy for you @@FortKnox78 my surgery is Monday and it seems very far away i haven't had any problems with the liquid diet just fighting a cold that's trying to come. My surgeon told me to drink Thera flu i hope it works don't to push surgery back question your allowed to drink b4 surgery? I was told nothing after midnight the day b4

Hey, I read about these Vitamins that you can get from a patch. They are supposed to be great for bariatric patients. I'm so darn excited. I ordered the multi and the B-12. A few less pills is a good thing!

Wow! good for you for taking it so well! I would have had a meltdown lol after all the waiting. I am scheduled for thd 30th. Just trying not to catch a cold of anything between now and then! Does anyone know if you can have low sodium regular V8 juice on your preop diet. I can't get ahold of my nutritionist. She said sugar free juice and vegatable broth and it meets those criteria.

I'm on my 3rd day of my pre Op diet. My sleeve will be done on the 30th of March. The liquid diet is going well, it's just seems like time is moving slow. Excited and scared, worried about gas pains after its done. Good luck with everyone being sleeved in March. Is anyone else being sleeved the 30th ?

I'm getting my sleeve on March 30 too! I just started my pre op liquid diet today. I feel like I'm doing mental calisthenics making sure I want to do this. Yes I do! I just want to have little or no complications. And it seems like each person is so different in their experiences. Hope your liquid diet goes by quickly.

      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! 😞
