Not everyone. I wasn't. All doctors have different regimes for pre-op.

Yes, Blossom has us on liquids for Breakfast and lunch, however, we are allowed to have Protein and non-starchy veggies every night for dinner, 2 weeks preop.

We ate at Red Robin one night. I love turkey burgers and Red Robin has the best at a restaurant. They actually allow you to get just a burger and only charge like $3.

We also ate at an Italian restaurant, which was fabulous and I wish I could remember the name of it. I actually just got a side order of 2 meatballs.

What hotel do they have you at? There was a restaurant in the one where I stayed called Annie's Diner or something like that and that had great options. Blossom gave me a list of all the places that were near the hotels they use that have good options.

Burger on the plate or lettuce wrapped. Side salad and your choice of seafood/fish. Ask what their freshest veggies are and request steamed veggies and a grilled chicken breast. I have found that if you ask for something most places other than fast food or restaurants that don’t really cook anything are very helpful.

I just saw where you had in your post that you will not have a car. There’s not really much nearby, except for a restaurant in front of the hotel. I’m assuming you are staying at the Hampton Inn. There are lots of places around, but not within walking distance, so you may just have to have dinner delivered. We actually rented a car for the week, mostly because we did not want to be stuck inside the hotel room and I did not want my husband stuck inside the hotel room while I was at all of my appointments.

They house at more than one hotel (or they did before). I actually went twice - first time, I was in a marriot I think and it had a restaurant. Second time, in December, I was at Hampton. You're right, no restaurant there but there is at the other location.

I went to King’s Fish House twice while there back in May. It was so good. I actually had my final before surgery dinner there too! It’s in the Green Valley Ranch shopping complex that is about 10-15 mins Uber ride from the hotel (I’m assuming you’ll be at the Hampton or the Hilton Garden). I would definitely go there if you get a chance!

I am in the Hyatt now. Having surgery on Monday. I felt safe regarding covid with all aspects of this trip (airport, hotel and Blossom). Blossom has a great program. They really care about each patient.

      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!!
