Pre Surgery Liquid Diet And Diarrhea?
NDN_RN replied to rodeo02's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
A lot of protein shakes are sweetened with sucralose. Enough of that has a laxative effect. Gass bubbles, cramps and... Never trust a fart! -

Getting Drainage Tube Removed
NDN_RN replied to SoonToBeThinKAT's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I have not been sleeved until next week, but I did have an open cholecystectomy with 3 drains. I fainted when they pulled out the JP drain. It didn't hurt, but something about the sensation triggered a vasovagal reaction (swooning). How embarrassing! They called 911 (i was in the doctors office) Just Do It!!! -
How Are You Preparing?
NDN_RN replied to scaredoftheunknown's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
You are right. The gummies I got were not calcium citrate, and my Nut says calcium phosphates or calcium gluconates are not absorbed by sleeves, so I bought calcium citrate chews at the local Tommy K Vitamins Just Do It!!! -

Let Me Try That Again. Do People Really Eat Baby Food During The Soft Phase
NDN_RN replied to Joy1961's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I hear you. I will be working, on the road, it just seems convenient. I actually had baby food before way back when I was in my 20s to stay under 130 lbs. didn't seem so bad then. I figure that I (meaning me, myself and I and not making presumptions for others) I can do it for one week. I may try to puree the meat I cook for the family (protein first) at dinner, but anything pureed is maybe not so yummy, in my taste. Let me know of any yummy pureed recipes. Just Do It!!! -

I am entitled to an opinion about baby food, having raised 9 of them. Nothing inappropriate about that. Really? Just Do It!!! -

Fairfield Bariatrics on the CT gold coast, Dr Craig Floch. It is stage 3 week 3, pureed diet. Puree everything, but baby meats for protein are a good alternative and high in protein. A 2 1/2 oz jar of chicken, turkey or beef has between 8 and 10 grams of protein. i don't see what the big deal is, on the go. It's not like forever. Just Do It!!! -
Pure Protein Shakes are ok 35 g in 12 oz can, 170 calories Just Do It!!!

I Spiced Up My Protein Shake!
NDN_RN replied to SleeveShelly's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
PB2 has 45 calories and 5 grams of Protein, so once a day should be great. I bought some torani sugar free syrups made with sucralose (not as healthy as PB2, but zero calories) i tried Peanut Butter and salty caramel in my Optifast, and it definitely yummed it up. I have vanilla, brown sugar and cinnamon, white chocolate, and gingerbread flavors for oatmeal during my soft phase and for Breakfast afterwards. I had to buy a case of the assorted flavors on amazon, but it was only 35 for 6 bottles. -

Mushies is a week. Can only eat about 3 oz of protein per meal anyway. Add some condiments and baby meats arent that bad...honestly, it's just a week
