I actually have one of the easier pre op diet as well.

Same date as me!

I bought Centrum adult chewable and Flintstone complete to see which I tolerate better.

My team recommends the following as a baseline. Then depending on individual needs adds iron, b12, etc..

As ready as im gonna be...lol I start the 14th. How about you?

I am August 28th for RNY bypass.

Congrats Shane!

@YoBL Its awesome you are able to identify the mental hunger thing. That scares me more than surgery, not being able to get past that.

Good luck and prayers to both of you!

@tahoegirl96118 what brand is it that you buy at Costco?

@sillykitty You look amazing! I want curves like that!

Glad it went well!!!

I am so sorry for your loss Emily! We are all here for you if u need to vent. Enjoy your drinks and have a few extra, U deserve them.

Congrats, good luck with surgery!

@Kcoley Good luck, I'm sure you will do great!

I bought the syntrax nectar sampler on amazon. I did it so that i would have a variety and wouldnt get sick of one or two flavors. I also bought the unjury chicken soup protein powder as a savory option.

Good luck!

Amazing!!! Great job, congrats!!!

Good luck Laura, hope everything goes well!

I am still pre op and picking up items here and there to try. I will be seeing my nutritionist again once I'm approved and can/will ask her as well. I'm curious as to whether a certain soup I tried and really liked is ok. It has 13 g sugar total (3 of which are added, 10 natural) Along those same lines how many grams of natural sugars ARE ok post op? The rule of thumb I was given is to try and stay under 10 grams/serving, but didn't know If that was total or added. Also, if something has say 13 but I am only able to eat a half serving, is that ok? Sorry if I rambled and im really NOT stupid, I swear....lol

I love cottage cheese with halved cherry tomatoes as a sort of savory option.

@sillykitty me too!

Im a day after you and ill admit i've been having a few food funerals myself...lol

Congrats! Excellent progress!!!

Mine was overnight at a sleep center. I had to stop any caffeine by 4 pm, be there by 9pm, get my wires hooked up, be in bed by 11 and i was out around 6 am. Its not bad, just don't plan to get a good night sleep.
