My surgeon recommended ProCare Bariatric chewables which are pretty reasonable. Calcium is Bariatric Advantage calcium citrate chewy bites 500mg a piece. They are pretty expensive but they are good and come in different flavors. Protien shake, I get Premier they are ok but better when they are cold.

How is you pre op diet going? We are both scheduled for Tuesday. As the days get closer it feels like I have so much to get done.

Pre op diet has been tolerable. I have had a few days when I wanted to eat my arm off!! Lol. I think it is easier now that it's closer to Tuesday, what about you? I have a wedding to go to tomorrow. Fortunately it's in town so I can come home and have a shake while everyone is eating their meal and having cake. I'll go back after for the rest of the reception.

It's hard to believe it's finally time! The 6 months of preop supervised diet seemed like it started a lifetime ago. I'm so ready!!

Pre op diet is a challenge. I work 12hrs day so its a little more difficult when I'm there. Im staying strong. Go to the refrigerator for a shake and its all this other stuff in there for the family. I just want a taste of something that I can chew. I had to do the 6 month diet also. I think it was worth it. It prepared me for eating healthy. We are so close, we got this. Praying for you.

I'll keep you in my prayers as well! I just got the call with my check in time- 7:15am. Surgery is at 10:15. You mentioned you work 12 hours- what type of work do you do? I'm a nurse. I work an 8 hour evening shift now and when I return, I'll be on 12 shifts when I return. I will be off 4 weeks, which will be good to help me get in a routine with exercise and my meals.
