I'm not sure I'm understanding your question... Are you asking if you should drink your slushy and eat your nachos together? (Avoid the normal 30minute rule)???

If that's what your asking, I personally wouldn't, but then again, I'm pretty new in my surgery (2/26). I can see how a trip to the movies would be difficult when it comes to planing your Snacks. I have always had my snack and drink together... That's a big change to switch it around.

Hopefully a veteran sleever will respond to this! ;)

Eating and drinking together, is something that I would not do. Eating nachos and slush again is something that I would not do. But as I tell a lot of people on this board, your level of success is directly tied to what YOU decide to do. I can't absolve you from what I think is an unwise decision, but you are the one that has to make the call. Eating and drinking together certainly won't be of too much harm, neither will obesity up to a certain point. Enjoy the movie.

when I went to the movies a few weeks ago I packed in my purse a cheese stick and a dill pickle, because they did not sell them at the theatre. then I bought a bottled Water.< /p>

Should I eat and drink as a one off' date=' going cinema, so planning to have nachos and slush?[/quote']

I have no idea what a "one off" is. Sorry.

I, myself, would be concerned with the salt from nachos (and whatever is in that cheese concoction) and the sugars from the slushy. But, thats only if it were my sleeve. Depending how far out you are, the sugars from that can make you feel quite ill. AND, some slushy's are carbonated. Icee and slurpee - the major difference between them is carbonation. (Yes, I googled it prior to surgery, from the manufacturer website. lol)

Good luck with whatever you decide. Have fun at the movies!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
