Sleeve 4/27- preop diet concern
dunnadunna replied to dunnadunna's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm having like, the exact opposite issue lol. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Me too. I got on this blog to make sure I'm not the only person with the opposite of constipation on the liquid diet. It's my first day and I'm pretty sure there's nothing left inside me. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App If you're like me, you'll find out there's more in there tomorrow. At least for a few days. I'm going back and forth, honestly.

Alcohol and drugs after surgery
dunnadunna replied to jmc534's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I wonder if he gives advice about drinking, "Drink as many mixed drinks as you want, just don't use a straw". lol, he says be easy with the drinks because a shot will get you drunk, and it's all empty calories. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -

Sleeve 4/27- preop diet concern

They only gave me like 5 Protein shake options for preop and asked me to stick to those. Premier is reserved for post op for some reason. Of those preop shake options, two of them contain way too much actual sugar (I have reactive hypoglycemia) and caused me to have dumping syndrome. I have broth once a day at most because the shakes are pretty filling, and I don't so any sf Popsicles or Jello because I hate artificial sweetener and there's enough of that in the shakes as well. I haven't looked into the sodium in the shakes, though. I was thinking that once my Atkins supply runs out in two days, I'll make my own for the last 5 days and just use the muscle milk powder I already have. I can put lemon in my water. I'll try that. Maybe I just have an oversensitive system lol. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App Have you done yours? What did you use? Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
Alcohol and drugs after surgery
dunnadunna replied to jmc534's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I spoke to my dietician and told him not to bullshit me lol. I quit smoking six months ago for this surgery. I'm allergic to hops so I can't have beer, anyway, but I smoke weed, and three months after my op I will be going to Jamaica. I asked him if I could smoke. He said, and I quote, "I don't give a fuck how much weed you smoke. Just no nicotine. Smoke it out of papers or a pipe, no blunts." I wouldn't know about Coke, I don't really do that. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App None of it is okay within a certain period preop, though. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App -
I have a bmi of 44 right now. I'm getting the sleeve done, mainly because I have reactive hypoglycemia... I suffer dumping syndrome frequently if I'm not minding what I eat, anyway, and the doc worried that it would be too hard on me to get RnY. Sleeve it is.
