Oh that's so fantastic! Thanks for letting me know. I'm just getting caught up with the entire forum. I just saw the same date and geek'd. I got it today. I've had a lot of bumps and hiccups in my journey, so I'd really like to just move forward smoothly.

I had different instructions.
The liquid diet for me goes like this:
1-9 days -- Clear Liquids (for the full two weeks up to 50 cal a day), one approved food 80-100 cal (i'm just picking pudding), whey Protein Shakes (they have a list of how many you'll need to drink throughout the day to get the required grams of Protein -- in this case 5 Premier Protein shakes)
10-14 days -- same clear liquids, No approved foods, 2 premier protein and 3 impact protein shakes. you have to get that from the hospital store. There's stuff in it to help you heal after surgery.

Then, my surgeon's nurse sent me an email of other things I need to do like labs, EKG, chest X-ray, see my Doctor to clear me for no infection in my lungs and heart, 3 hour long group class with the surgeon, 1 hour group class with weight management.

I've been slacking on taking my Vitamins ahh don't judge. Anyone think this will be a problem? put off surgery?

You're welcome. Sainthood - you're too kind.
You've written poems for other members.
Here's one for you:

Bari-sisters on the scene
Have you met Little Green?
She's cool,
She's alright,
But mess with kakatlady,
She'll call you really shady
Creekimp has your back
When under attack
From f'ed up professional error
Or Bariatric member terror
Then there's FluffyChix
Let's get her in the mix
She gives a humor fix
Along with gentle (hugs)
But she can be your thug
KatFight has been there too
When doctors' associates have no clue
So, yes, puddycat do what you gotta do
Even if you leave some kitty poo
In the end (hee hee) you'll be great
And eat from a little plate
You'll be really lean
Bari-sisters on the scene

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
