    The last supper

    My "last" supper was Mexican Food!
  12. Gnc Lean shake 25 and Isopure is what I'm drinking for my Pre-op and will be my first few weeks Post-op as well. They both taste really good.
  13. My drs food plan is: 2 weeks pre-op: clear liquids and protein shakes Post-op: Days 1 & 2 Clear liquid (same as pre-op) Days 3-14 Full liquids Days 15-30 Purees foods & cottage cheese, refried beans, pudding, etc. Day 31 forward - Transition to regular foods as I can tolerated!
  14. I'm also on a full liquid diet and today was my 5th day. For me it helps that I can have sf Popsicles and sf jello. My dietician also said that I can have 1 dill pickle spear a day. You can also freeze your protein shakes and have like an icee. Hope this helps! I had a pickle spear today and that was the best pickle spear I have ever had. LOL. Don't feel bad, you'll be fine!

    Calling all August Sleevers!

    My surgery is Aug 12 and I started my 2 week pro-op yesterday. I haven't had the issues of being hungry or starving yet. They said the first 2 days are the worst and to me they haven't been bad at all. On my pre-op diet I can I can only have my shakes, low sodium broth, sf jello, sf Popsicles and water. Best of luck
  18. My surgery is scheduled for Aug 12 @ 6:30 am! I started my 2 week liquid prep-op diet today!
  19. My surgery is scheduled for Aug 12 @ 6:30 am! I started my 2 week liquid prep-op diet today!
  20. I am going to be a self pay also. The dr diagnosed me with Gerd so my insurance would cover the EGD. Since he found a hiatal hernia my out of pocket portion is only $10,000 because the hospital will be billing for the hernia repair.

  23. Tomorrow I start my two week liquid diet and my surgery is scheduled for Aug 12! I am excited and nervous at the same time! Any advice? Thanks!
