I saw gas strips...can u take pills after surgery? Like Tylenol, Imodium, or r u suppose to do liquid?

Hope u feel better very soon!

Im headed to mexico on 9 April...I am using Dr.Ponce and Trish has been great so far.

How r u? Have u had surgery yet?

Just printed pic out...comes out good enough even with the flash mark. Thanks for posting this! Definitly going to make sure this is with me just in case...

Safe travels...update when u can!

Same here. .my surgery set for 9 April. My pcp wants to see me 1 month out, then every 3 for blood work.

Thanks again for info.. I think its gonna suck on no coffee in the morning. Im dreading that!

Good luck ladies and safe travels! Update when u can!! :-)

Thanks, my date is 9 april. Hopefully she will email me soon then.

Im on an fb page to for sleevers and just what they say they r doing preop and post op is so different. Most r on two week pre...to help shrink liver...I want to know why Dr. Ponce doesn't do that...plus all say Vitamins and its the ones u mentioned. Oh and some r saying they did 2 week shakes then saled with like chicken...then last 3 days Clear liquids along with laxative also.. where u told to do that? Im assuming trish will call or email prior to start of 3 day with info...or do I call her? Thanks for info! :-)

Really...almost every person I have spoke with are on some type of Vitamin that doc recommended. Can u tell me was there a food list on post op?

After any of u had surgery, was Vitamins recommended in post op instructions? If so how long afterwards... Also, I have noticed other doc pre-ops r two weeks...and many already have post-op instructions...did trish send this out before or did u recieve this after surgery?

How are you doing?

Ok I will check them out. Thanks for info!

Where did you purchase the broth? I have never heard that name Unjury.....

Do you have to take Vitamins etc? Also, what did you find to be the better Protein shakes? Im just wondering what type I should buy, I want to have some things in the house for when I get home. I have read ppl doing the protein poweder shakes but is stuff like Jello at first something you can do or is it all just liquid? Im thinking broth shakes,etc. Just not sure if jello would come later in weeks.

Sarah...that would be great, I could use a texting buddy. I think I am just anxious and worried along with excited. I just kept seeing so many different ppl saying what they were drinking or where to buy Protein shakes from...etc and its was getting confusing.( Im still confused on what to buy so its here at home when I get back) Plus I was only told about pre-op of 3 days yoguart and Water, is this what you did to? Before you left did they give you all post op food info? Any other info you could pass along would be awesome!!! Im very happy with my choice of using Dr. Ponce, all the research I have done on him and now from everyones post here has made me even more confident in my decision to use him.

Thanks everyone, this makes me feel better. :-) The nerves plus the hurry up and get it done...is starting to kick in. But like all things april 9 will be here before I realize it.

Oh that sounds nice! I am stressing myself over the post op diet....silly but I have read so many different things on here about protein shakes, some do them some dont..etc its a little confusing.

Ok just sent it to u.
