Oct 5th over here! Cant wait! Started my liquid diet today and already failed. Had a left over baked chicken leg. The Protein Shakes are awful. I feel bad for cheating but they never gave me an actual diet. I just planned to do this to get myself ready. Wondering if it would be better to just have mostly liquid and a light Protein meal. IDK, im just ready for the day to get here even though i feel ill prepared. Even tho i AM ill prepared. Anyone have a check list? I know im going to need a lot but i dont know where to start. Feel like ive been in a daze.

PS. Im having my surgery in Brooklyn NY. If anyone lives here or near id love a buddy. I feel like im sinking lol.

Oh and by today i meant 9/26/16

Hi everyone , I'm getting the sleeve on October 18th . And I was told the sleeve doesn't help people with acid reflux , for some reason the doctor decided for sleeve . Does anyone know if the acid reflux could get better or worse with the sleeve ? Thank you

@@vivi16 It depends on the cause of the acid reflux. Do you have a hiatal hernia that will be repaired at the same time? If so - that's probably what's causing the reflux. I have mild reflux (based on my GI Study) and having the Sleeve. My Dr felt there would be no issues. I'm also on the 18th!! good luck!

@@facebro29 Can you have sugar free popsicles or Jello? Try adding some good sugar free flavors to a shake - like add a spoonful of Decaf instant coffee into a chocolate shake or get some sugar free flavoring and add hazelnut or caramel to a shake. It should help a little. Good Luck!

Thanks for the help. Might try to get some sugar free jelly. My NUT wants me to eat normally before pre-op so no shakes or bars for me. I will get some on my way home.

      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! 😞
