I just got back from my DRS. today now they are sending my paper work to my Ins,co. hope to have surgery in March sometime.. You can make your own clear foods.Like chicken soup ect...as for protein I use Whey from Walmart Body Fortress it's good for protein powers. I have gone to YouTube a lot for help and great advice I got lots of sugar free jello,hot tea,soups I know this is going to be the hardest part to do the per-op.I went to the Baby food area at Walmart I got my little Baby cups,spoons,fork,and slippcups and some foods with no cals,fat,sugars free also got the book,Weight Loss surgery for Dummies great book for prepare for surgery and achieve the best results.Do a lot of walking in and out of the hospital it will help with the gas and weight loss good luck to you might take some lip balm with you to the hospital so Happy for you!!! -

sastexan4u@yahoo.com replied to LG1981's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
my Dr has me on a 2 weeks liquid diet before I have surgery.I don't understand why he has done this for you. Go online for per-op diet for Sleeve and see what it has to say and you can talk to your Dr.when you see him. Good Luck.. -
