Hi all. On day 3 of my 10 day pre op diet!! So hungry and a little moody so yes I am HANGRY!!! Anyway. Wanted to know if I can have sugar free Popsicles? Dr is out of town for the holidays and I dont classify this as an emergency to call him. Was anyone allowed them?

Hi Tiff, I'm on my 2nd day of liquid diet (pre-surgery). I was very hangry 1st day, and a little better today. I've found it's best for me to stay away from smells of food, if possible. I'm trying to drink more Water today to help out. I've found I like the powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein mixes best. I ordered them from internet. I only started with the sample packet before I started. Basically to find out which flavors I liked the best. They have a chicken flavored one and when it's added to warm Water (not hotter than 140 degrees) it taste like chicken Soup. My dr. lets me have unsweetened applesauce with artifical sweetner. I added a little cinamon to it tonight and enjoyed it. Hang in there and just remember the better we do with this liquid diet the less likely of complications with the surgery. We're getting that fatty liver shrunk so the surgeon can do an excellent job for us.!!!

I am 7 days into the pre-op diet, and it's definitely gotten easier the past couple of days. It was rough at first, but now I'm suddenly halfway there and it's smooth sailing.

My doc also encourages popsicles. So there's that.

Hang in there. It gets better!

      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.
