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.

      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.
