Everyone says drink G2. Is that sugar free? Also, I even add unflavored protein to my vitamin water zero n stuff. It's not the best taste in the world, but not that bad. I think it depends on your type of unflavored powder. Where did you get Protidiet?

Set up my appt for CPAP right after I was diagnosed.

I'm on day 3 of pre-op and not hungry. At all. I think it's Bc I'm getting 80-100 grams of protein a day and under 25g carbs.

30g shake for breakfast 30g half a shake and grilled chicken for lunch 27g New Direction broccoli cheddar soup 15g sf pudding with scoop protein

I'm agreeing with SJ, it's all about the protein. First day I was hungry but got about 80-90 grams protein, I had a head game/fight going on with an apple fritter, but I didn't cave. I knew it was Bc it's my favorite pastry. Not Bc I was actually hungry. Yesterday and today I feel fine as far as hunger goes. Headache the first 2 days but feeling good today.

Make sure you're on a PPI. It will reduce stomach acid. Stomach acid mimics hunger. -
Awesome. Thanks a bunch!!

I started my pre-op diet today and I actually wavered. I literally dreamt about sausage gravy and homemade biscuits. I swear I almost got up and made it for breakfast. I thought "well 13 days of pre-op will be fine". So... I got up and had my shake. Stupid head hunger.
-
Thank you!! It's still an awesome valentine gift, just a few days late. Lol
-
If you don't mind me asking, where do you get those? Are the Blissful pre-made?
-
This may sound weird but I'm using mio with a scoop of unflavored whey protein in it.
-
I told my 17 year old daughter what I almost did and she texted back "Just image the hard gristle things that usually come in sausage. Like you bite down and it's hard and almost breaks ya tooth. Nasty" lol.

Mine is a shake for Breakfast Snack consisting of either sf pudding or sf yogurt mixed with unflavored Protein powder or a liquid mixed with it. Lunch: Half a shake, lean protein and cup veggies Another snack as above. Dinner: same as lunch At least 64 oz of Fluid That's for 11 days. After that liquids only. I was told the want you to have an abundance of protein to promote healing. -
We have u in our thoughts. I'm definitely sending positive vibes your way. It's normal to get cold feet and last minute jitters. Ask them to give you something for your anxiety and they will.

I'll be sleeved February 18 in Norman, Oklahoma by Dr Lana Nelson. I'm actually from Durant, OK but think my surgeon is worth the drive. Any other February 18 sleevers? April

I'm in Oklahoma. Unfortunately we get ice. But I'm gonna take it super slow and safe. I'll holla once I get there.
-
Of course we get an ice storm. The day before my pre-op. I'm supposed to have a chest X-ray, EKG, final labs, meeting with the surgeon and her PA and my prep class. All tomorrow. 3 hrs away. I'm chancing it anyway. I'm leaving between 3-4am to be able to drive slow and careful. Jeez

There are some leak tests, especially in Mexico, that are performed using a drain. You drink this blue dye like substance and if it comes out in the drain, you're leaking. Just as drains can PREVENT infection, they can also be a SOURCE of infection so some Drs do not use them.
