Surgery date is Nov 2 --- on 2 week pre op diet now.

We have the same date for surgery! One more week. How's the liquid diet going? I'm okay as long as I'm not around delicious food smells, lol!

Yes we are! Are you on a liquid pre op diet too?

Yep--full liquids. A bit tired of the shakes & Jello, but it will be worth it next week.

How are you doing?

My date is november 19th too!!! I understand how you feel. I am not nervous about the surgery really because I'm in the medical field and find it fasinating. But I am worried about recovery time at home. I'm not a good patient.

Today was much better. I have grown to hate the Protein Shakes but chug them just because I know I have to have them. V8 and egg drop Souphave been my saving grace. Have you found any way to help with the shakes?

I just got my Bariatric pal powdered Soup variety pack that I ordered online. Not yet brave enough to try. I got peppermint B 12 and so much better than the cherry flavor! I got orange chewable multivitamin from Bariatric Advantage and it is really nasty. Starting to lose hope of a multivitamin I can stand:(

Have you tried the Bariatric Fusion Multivitamin Soft chews? They are delicious and sugar free. I have tried about every Vitamin there is and these are the best tasting. I'll post a pic of what I am using

. I read some reviews about Bariatric fusion that were pretty negative, stating that does not have complete Vitamin amounts etc. I have been wanting to ask my doctors opinion .

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
