What are some recommendations for brands of protein powders and vitamins? I got a bunch of samples from Barilife, has anyone heard of them?

My surgery is on July 28th. Nobody has mentioned anything about a liquid diet yet.

Hi there! July 29th surgery here.

I feel like I've been on this road forever but today was my last pre-op nutrition class and I received my pre-surgery schedule. It's gonna be a busy couple weeks juggling all these appointments and my work schedule but I'm in the final stretch now. I'm really excited. Actually there's a whole lot of emotions going on inside me. I ordered the Big Book On Gastric Sleeves today on Amazon. I'm so glad it exists because even though I feel like I've leaned a lot in the nutrition classes I don't feel at all prepared and it makes me so nervous!

Sounds about right!! I have a 9 year old son. I remember my last month of pregnancy was the hardest because it dragged on forever!! I was so eager to meet him. That is how this feels. Then I was eager to drop a 7 pound baby, now I'm eager to drop 80% of my stomach and give birth to a brand new me!
