I ordered the calcium citrate chewables directly from Bariatric Advantage. I am not kidding when I say they are like candy. Very tasty. I have been following my pre-op diet plan very strictly and have found having these to provide a nice flavor is something to look forward to and savor them. 1 or 2 really does tame the head-hunger-beast. That sounds really interesting. Who makes them and where do you get these ???

Does the protein shakes count as your daily fluid requirement?

What is a good unflavored protein powder?

Does shakes and Soups count as daily requirement? I can hardly get down 2 oz each meal.

thank You!

I'm in DFW area. Would love some support as well. Surgery tomorrow. Yikes! Just a bit nervous!!

I like the low sodium chicken broth and today I found a beef broth that has roasted garlic and onion taste. It is a Safeway brand, but needed something different since Ive been on chicken broth for a week now.

@@kat Thanks, I found it! Getting more nervous as the hours pass. Don't think I will be able to sleep a wink tonight.

I bet your surgeon will give you a prescription. Mine pre-ordered all my prescriptions and had them mailed to my house. It was nice to have everything already to go. I just had to pick up a few things that were OTC and Protein shakes.

@@Namaste6 My doctor gave me a prescription cream that I already have to put on the scar after the surgery. Your doctor didn't give you anything?

im having trouble seeing responses. Is there a delay in the time you post to when others can see your post? I dont know if someone has responded to a post unless I check my email. I that the only notification? Just wondering!

How do you put the BMI Ticker on your posts?

Hi Im also a newbie. I scheduled for tomorrow morning at 7:00 bright and early. Im very nervous, but happy to finally get to this point. I know it will be hard at first, but will be worth it. I definately could use support or friends to get me through this.

I love the Bluebonnett Isolate Protein in chocolate. Has 25g protein and is delish. I also just recently discovered the whey Shots. They have 43g protein in different flavors. Just add Water or put in propel bottle and drink. I love the Bluebonnett Isolate protein in chocolate. Has 25g protein and is delish. I also just recently discovered the Whey Shots.

where do you buy the supplements? Like the calcium?

I am schedule for surgery on Oct 8th and all set. I just was wondering how long the scars are? And where they are located? Thank you!

I too have been struggling with the pre-op diet. I was suppose to do 7 days clear liquids, but was so hungry. I ate chicken with rice soup and crackers because i was so hungry. I am now down to the last 3 days and not sure what he will tell me when I show up on Thursday. Was thinking of calling the office to see if I need to postpone surgery, but I hate to have to put it off at this point. any thoughts?
