So I got the zero carb bottles-- there's flavors like blue raspberry, orange etc. The dietician told me some people add a little Water post op just cause they're a little much, but they're a great way to get your Protein. I've tried the orange mango & it wasn't the best but wasn't the worst either.

I've used isoprure bottles that has 40 grams of Protein when I had my sleeve. By itself it taste awful I mean awful. I added a packet of crystal light and made sure it was ice cold and it was decent. I can say what I loved before surgery the first time around I hated after surgery. Be open to trying different ones and don't buy too much of anything before surgery as you will be surprised how different your taste buds are after surgery. I read how that happened to folks but didn't think it would happen to me and low and behold it was 1000% true lol.

Hi all. Hope you are all feeling good. Today is day nine of my pre op diet. I am feeling very weak and lightheaded. My sugar is currently 159. I really feel like crap.

So sorry to hear that. Maybe give your surgeon a call and see what he/she has to say.
My day has been full!!! Spring cleaning and getting something's organized!!! Room by room. But boy I will go crazy once I get to my closet. I want to put all my clothes in order by size so it'll be easier as I move on down.
I'm just trying to keep myself busy so I don't start freaking out too much. I'm an over thinker and a worrier[emoji30]

Pretty good--couple of minor cheats but nothing outrageous. Hope you have done well.

I'm on day 6 and somehow managed not to slip up! I have between 3-4 Premier Protein shakes a day and loads of Chrystal light.

This all feels so sudden despite the 7 month wait lol

Lucky you that you only have to do liquids today. My doctors don't require the bowel purge! I don't have to do that. I was shocked and elated.

I had a few cheats. Nothing too bad. But, yay me, I woke up with my period today and surgery is tomorrow. Ugggg

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
