    Pill Crushing?

    Before having my sleeve done. I had a hard time taking pills. NOW, I have to crush my Zantac. OMG!!! Just the thought makes me gag. I HATE taking this pill 2x a day. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to get this down without gagging. I mean, I know that I HAVE to take this but its horrible trying to get it down. UGH!!

    October Sleevers?

    Hi Betts69, Yes. I'm on my preop liquid diet and it is EXTREMELY HARD. It's for 2 weeks. Breakfast- Protein shake Snack- sugar free Jello and Water Lunch- Protein Shake Snack- Sugar Free Apple sauce and water Dinner- Protein Shake and 1 cup of veggies Then, another Protein Shake This diet is teaching me DISCIPLINE because I have to cook for my family. Whenever I get hungry, I go find something to do with water handy. I love YouTube so I'll find motivation looking at before and after videos of people who have been through this and I feel so much better about this decision. Anyhoo, I am doing pretty good with it. I also think about how close I am. I only have 2 MORE DAYS.
