I'm trying to decide what to wear and pack for hospital and what I need to buy for first few weeks post op. I'm not a sweatpants person so all I have are suits and jeans. Should I get yoga pants, drawstring no drawstring elastic???? I love to shop and I will go out of control if left to my own ideas.

Feta and goat cheese are my favorite!!!! I love the spinach wrap at Starbucks can't wait to have it again -
It is painful but use the pain meds no reason to suffer. I'm post op May 6th and trust me it gets better. One day at a time. The walking hurts but it helps so keep moving

Decaf tea or decaf coffee. You could do the "milkshakes" but no sugar and non fat and your still using a lot of calories

I'm in Philadelphia. I haven't been able to get liquids in. I'm not allowed protein until Moday only clear liquids until then. I also haven't pooped yet but I guess I'm probably empty since I've only been drinking clear liquids for last three weeks. -

Ok question...when did y'all have your first drink post op and what was it? My surgeon said no drinking at all for 6 months. My Lil sister is getting married this summer and I'd love to have a glass of wine at least. -

Need post opers to give advice on pre op diet
Luvlvnlyfe5 posted a topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
So I'm really having a hard time. My date is May 6th and I started my pre op diet on Friday. I have horrible headaches and no energy. My pre-op is liquids only 3 protein shakes, water, tea and coffee. Oh and sugar free jello and Popsicles. Did any of you have issues with pre-op diet. I'm seriously having a hard time. I don't have energy for anything. I have a very stressful job and I'm not sure how I will get they the week like this. -

I will have to try the vanilla torte. I got a vanilla from them that I don't like and can't decide what to mix it with to give a better flavor. I'm thinking of trying it in tea to make a chai latte. So you eat a lean Protein everyday? Let me know what they say about your liver tomorrow I've been so afraid to eat anything. I did cheat and have so e Peanut Butter today. I needed a different flavor! -

You can do it!!!!! You will be so out if it. When I took a tour of the recovery room I saw a woman walking 4 hours after surgery. She looked tired but said she felt great!
