So here is the list I copied from my program and then what I actually need in case someone else goes to the store for me. SF means sugar free. I cant handle most products so I listed to look for items that say made with Splenda, but most people can handle any sugar free option.

This is just for the first month. I will post the official pages from my program in the hopes it might help others.

17 days and counting.

I just tried mixing low fat Greek yogurt with sugar free pudding and it was yummy! At what point post op can you have something like that? After liquid, mushy stage?

Plans vary, but the one my facility handed out allows pudding and yogurt during the full liquids stage :)

My surgery is day after tomorrow (Thursday). I've tried all I can to set myself up for success without going overboard (I hope). I've picked up a couple of different Protein shakes (I have a difficult time tolerating them, as well as liking them). I picked up a case (12 bottles) of Isopure Zero Carb in Icy Orange, EAS Carb Control in vanilla and Dark chocolate and also have some unfalvored Protein packets from powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury. As for other stuff, I've got a huge supply of homemade chicken and turkey broth (made by a family member and frozen in ice cube trays). I stocked up on sugar free Gelatin, sugar free instant pudding, vanilla greek yogurt and sugar free ice pops. I've also picked up a few containers of stage 1 baby food (just in case). In addition to food stuffs, I've laid in a supply of various flavors of Water flavorings, crystal light, diet cranberry juice and various herbal teas (for both hot and cold use). My doctor also insisted on having Milk of Magnesia, liquid Tylenol, liquid Benadryl and all chewable Vitamins and Calcium supplements. It's a little strange...I almost feel like I'm stocking up for an apocalypse or some other sort of natural disaster. LOL!!! My husband has taken a couple of days of from work to look after me after the surgery, and my daughter and son-in-law are begging me to come spend the next two weeks with them so they can look after me. I am truly hoping to be on my feet and taking care of business within a day or two, am I being unrealistic here? If you think I've forgotten something here, please let me know. If I leave it to my husband to get something for me he usually gets the wrong thing, and then gets annoyed at me becasue of it. LOL!!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      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.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
