I hear you. I thought, I had researched and investigated but I have learned so much in the last year, it’s unbelievable. Surgery Dec 5th I have more Water to pickup this week since my tap is definitely never on my go to list. But otherwise, I might need to order some Protein but doubt it. I am prepped what should be near 6 week. Post I have 1-2 clear and 2 full followed by purée for 1-2. Because of other issues it will be more of a food trial but I will be wiser at the end.

A lot better than I thought! Never a problem but come to a point over a week never hungry. Starting to dislike Protein Drinks, guess a couple weeks. But I have been avoiding cream of wheat oatmeal pudding and flavored tuna. Well today, gave in first time I had been hungry.Only had a bout 3 ounces. Adding collagen and Protein to all my drinks and egg whites. Now pudding tuna egg whites cream o wheat and oatmeal are no no’s post op.
After Thursday, I have 4 more weeks liquid Whoopi 2 clear 2 full I am going to forget how to chew.

I am December 2 at Kaiser Northern California. I thought I would have to go on a liquid diet but Kaiser doesn’t require that - they let you eat up to 8 hours prior to surgery! They said it is easier for the body to heal after surgery. Definitely thankful.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
