Recommended Posts

1 day after mine! I am on a Monday and yours is on a Tuesday. How long did your doc. say you will be in the hospital? Mine told me 4 days. Have you started sampling Protein shakes. I have tried two. Yucky, so far. I am glad I have someone very close to my date now to chat with. :D

Mine is the 29th. Dr. Aceves.

I will be in the hospital until Friday. I have not tried any Protein Shakes yet. What have you tried so far? How much of a pre op diet do you have to do? My doc said one week but I may start the 1st of November just to be safe. I am so excited and nervous!!!!

I just got some samples of Protein shakes for my nutritionist. I tried Nectar- Fuzzy Navel- Yuk, but it did taste better if you get it cold first. This morning I tried nectar chocolate Truffle, not too bad but it has splenda in it. Splenda upset my stomach. I will be on a two week pre-op diet. I will start that on Nov. 14th. I am like you.... so excited and nervous. Lots of Anxiety.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
