Just wanted to ask what flavor of crystal light is least irritating for early post op. I prefer lemonade or pink lemonade but not sure if it would irritate the sleeve (although it probably doesn't contain actual lemons).

I have been drinking the Crystal light brand Hawiian Punch and the pink lemonade, haven't had any trouble with either. But everyone is a little different. I'm only 7 days out post op right now. I stated drinking crystal light about 4 days post op.

I am 6 weeks post-op and I am addicted to Crystal Light with Unflavored unjury Protein powder!!

My favorite (this week) is Raspberry Lemonade.

You said you preferred the lemonade varieties--YES! I found that was the flavor that "settled" the best in my very nauseous state post-op while still in the hospital. It was recommended by my NUT who said that the tartness of the lemonade took down the VERY OVERWHELMINGLY sweet taste of EVERYTHING!! Worked very well!

Best of luck to you!!

I love the peach Ice tea.

Peach tea is all I have liked so far. I loved all of them pre-opt though.

      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.
