I'm doing the Kroger brand of Slim Fast...pretty tasty

I'm doing Boost Calorie Smart - chocolate. It's the best that I've had and approved by my nutritionist. I bought stuff from them and I just don't like it.

I'm switching to Boost also...may cost a bit more, but has less sugar, haven't tried it yet so we'll see :) I had my preop testing today, just some blood work and my final visit with my surgeon, everything looks great! All that is left is a preop class they give for final questions (nutritionist and nurse give it), what to pack, what to expect, what to buy, etc. I am so excited but the butterflies have started...I am finally like "OMG this is really happening!" lol

Hey guys quick question, I'm scheduled for tues may 5th had my last pre-op appointment and all my paper work is done I have been on a two week liquid diet but I am going to a concert Saturday night, do you think if I have a few drinks it will matter?

Just my opinion, but I would say stay away from it...alcohol has lots of sugar in it...but have fun! :)

This is the month for us all. I'm scheduled for May 12. I'm only doing a 1 week liquid diet which I start on Monday. I'm so nervous about that. I'm so ready for this to be over. I been second guessing myself all week hoping I'm doing the right thing. This is a big life change. I think it's just nerves of the unexpected

I completely know what you mean I went to pay my and my surgery is the 13th and I am so so scared and now I don't know what I am going to do . So sad worried scared the list goes on and on. I just know none of them are of God so I just rebuked it .

I certainly wasn't expecting to be a May Sleever as I was expecting a June date but I am proud to join this group! My date is May 28th! I start the pre op diet on the 14th. My pre op diet is 2 shakes, 2 Snacks off of a small list and 2 oz meat and a cup of veggies for dinner.

I hear ya! Butterflies something awful! I'm excited, nervous, determined, etc. So many emotions! I think you will like the boost. I love it. I've lost 8lbs on my pre-op liquid diet so far. Now I'm being asked by one or two of those who know I am having the surgery why I can't just continue on my own without surgery. They just don't understand!

Just sleeved yesterday (may 1)

Significant pain but getting better

No gas pain so far

Walking makes me nauseous but I'm doing it

I had to make the radiologist wait around because I was dry heaving during the leak test

I think they're sending me home today

Sorry for plain reply...not feeling up to whole sentences

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
