I'm not sure which one u got, but if its a powder add SF Jello to it or some kind of flavoring.

Can u change it to a different one? That's Wat my friends hav done. They went to Walmart n bought New Whey Protein n also Meal Replacements. Hope this helps.

I don't have to do that. My dr. changed the pre op diet about a month ago. I started yesterday, all I do is eat all the meat I want, and 50 carbs a day. Then the day before surgery I do a clear liquid. So mine is not to bad. Except I'm suppose too drink 64oz of liquids n.I'm not a big drinker, I only drank 44oz yesterday.

I didn't have to do one either. Surgery was july 24 :)

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
