My surgeon will NOT do surgery on any type of nicotine in the lab test! He's done over 1,500 WLS and has seen ulcers that can be life threading way too many times.... Perhaps he can help u beat the addiction with accupunture or other methods? I would ask! Good luck.. U have time pre operatively?

I was a smoker too until a week before my surgery, my doc did not test for nicotine but I decided that I was ready to kick the habit byway. Surgery went well with no complications. I'm home on day 3 and feeling wonderful! Controlled pain and drinking my Water which is slowly getting easier. I'm struggling with the Protein Shakes. I wish you best of luck!

Yea I've read a few people didn't have to stop smoking, I guess it really depends on the surgeon and their requirements. Congrats on your surgery glad to hear that everything went well.

I totally forgot about a woman I know who has GP and was a heavy smoker before and after surgery. She was in such poor health and did not take good care of herself that she lost ALL her hair and got a massive infection internally. I now believe it had everything to do with her smoking habit.

Yes it affects the healing process that's why many surgeons won't operate if you smoke, and the insurance won't approve you also so better to stop for the best!

I'm on Zyban and the patch, I still have nicotine in my blood... I'm bringing my bottle and Patches prescription with me to show them that's what I'm on and not smoking! I hope they don't test me though!

Quitting smoking was THE WORST part of my journey. My docs office had a lot of issues with my auth... and I was like. Take this fat girl, tell me stop eating AND stop smoking.... but keep throwing wrenches in my plan that makes me wanna smoke more.... finally did it! And my surgery is scheduled for MONDAY.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
