NikiG 113 Posted December 1, 2012 I had the same problem with my chocolate Bariatric Advantage shakes so my dietician told me to order a powdered dehydrated Peanut Butter called "PB2" off of Amazon or some local outdoor stores carry it then add 2 tbl spoons of it to your shake and it makes it taste like a reeses Peanut Butter cup yummy lol That sounds yummy!

dstumpfol 5 Posted December 2, 2012 Thanks for the welcome. Had my pre-op visit today and will be on a liquid diet for preop. I m a band revision so will have a bit longer surgery but hopefully all will go well. I'm ready to get it behind me. Im nervous being a revision too.

mommywifeandfat 32 Posted December 2, 2012 My final weigh in is dec 18th and that night a referral will be made for te surgeon. Due to my husbands work my surgery can not be till jan 1st. But I'm in all the pre op now. My 9 vials of blood, 2 urine tests, poop sample, EKG, chest X-ray, I need pyc clearance and to walk 15 mins with my nurse. I have 14lbs left to loose... I'm not on any specific diet. Just a low cal low sugar diet. Regular foods and I am trying Protein Drinks to see what I like. Premier Protein from costco is my favorite. The Isopure is nasty!!!

one4ozzie 434 Posted December 4, 2012 I haven't received a date yet, waiting for final authorization from insurance plus my dr. is adding in a couple dates that he normally doesn't do a surgery. I've had my first preop, in which Dr said I was perfect candidate and we have all info and I was scheduled for preop 2 which is a class setting to go over important info and the surgeries again and expectations and dietary information after the surgery. I will also receive Rx's needed after the surgery. The preop 2 and final preop is this Thursday. I received the instructions for the preop diet already, just waiting to start the diet. The diet is 10 days preop. Sent from Gens iPhone using RNYTalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
