I have a list from my surgeon for post op diet and the weeks they are allowed, but don't see mention of almonds or nuts. I can have peanut butter now, so is it safe to assume as long as they are chewed well, I can have almonds and nuts? Any thoughts?

I am 8 days out, doing great with everything, but I am so emotional lately. I keep getting choked up at the most random times. Is this normal? I feel like I am going a little crazy.

I would think something was wrong with you if you weren't nervous and scared. I am a week out and can honestly say it isn't that bad. The anticipation leading up to it is way worse!!! Hang in there! You will be just fine!

An you please post a sample day menu (including snacks and amounts)? I am 1 week out and need some encouragement that I will indeed eat again. Lol.

I can have yogurt starting today. I want to get the most protein bang for my buck. Which one do you all like that gives enough protein?

I was sleeved on Tuesday. I have had probably 4 bouts of this happening.. I get an overwhelming urge to throw up, and I just end up spitting up foamy saliva. It lasts for about a minute and goes away. Please tell me this is normal and not something weird my sleeve is doing.. Should I worry? If this is normal - how long will this happen?

Since I am still on liquids, I think it is the way I am taking my pills that is making it do that. I have to break the pain pill into 2 and I have zofran to take. So I am taking 3 pieces right after each other. Maybe if I wait a couple minutes between each piece it will stop??

So it goes away??

My dr says it will be horrible nausea for 2 weeks. He is giving me the patch to put behind my ear. Surgery is Tuesday. What can I expect, nausea-wise?

Hey everyone - I was sleeved on April 10!! I spent 1 night in the hospital. I am home resting now. Not too many complaints, but my belly feels very sore. Nausea has been a little bit of an issue, but I have some good meds. Slide over on that losers bench and make room for me!!!

Liquid diet starts tomorrow for an April 10 surgery date!!! I am stressing a little about the liquid diet part! If you have any tips that helped you through this time, please share them!!

I am just 2 days before you!!! April 10!

I am in the same boat.. liquid diet starts Tuesday - surgery on April 10! We can do this. I would imagine cheating one time would be a slippery slope (for me anyway) and I would convince myself I could do it again. Fix yourself a nice big protien drink and take it to the party with you. Good luck!

I am scheduled for April 10 (which is also my birthday!!!!)!! I am nervous, but really excited! Start my pre-op diet on Tuesday.....

Dr says I need an EGD. He said they don't put you totally out, but that I won't know what is going on. Please tell me I am not going to know they are jamming a scope down my throat!!! Did you know what was going on??

I can't answer your questions (not yet sleeved), but just wanted to say congratulations on losing 100 lbs!!! That is amazing!

Mine is April 10! We will be ok!!! So excited!

Happy birthday to meeeee!!!

I found a great way to do the Protein shake.. Mix a sugar free carnation instant Breakfast chocolate packet (5g) with 1 scoop powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury unflavored Protein powder (20g) and 1.5 cups skim milk (13g) = 38g protein. It tastes like chocolate milk. Very good!! You could use 1 cup of milk for 8g which would lower it to 33g protein, but I wanted it a little thinner.
