Torriluv87 300 Posted September 27, 2016 (edited) Oct 5th over here! Cant wait! Started my liquid diet today and already failed. Had a left over baked chicken leg. The Protein Shakes are awful. I feel bad for cheating but they never gave me an actual diet. I just planned to do this to get myself ready. Wondering if it would be better to just have mostly liquid and a light Protein meal. IDK, im just ready for the day to get here even though i feel ill prepared. Even tho i AM ill prepared. Anyone have a check list? I know im going to need a lot but i dont know where to start. Feel like ive been in a daze. PS. Im having my surgery in Brooklyn NY. If anyone lives here or near id love a buddy. I feel like im sinking lol. Oh and by today i meant 9/26/16 Edited September 27, 2016 by Torriluv87 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KristenLe 5,979 Posted September 27, 2016 @@facebro29 Can you have sugar free popsicles or Jello? Try adding some good sugar free flavors to a shake - like add a spoonful of Decaf instant coffee into a chocolate shake or get some sugar free flavoring and add hazelnut or caramel to a shake. It should help a little. Good Luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KristenLe 5,979 Posted September 27, 2016 Hi everyone , I'm getting the sleeve on October 18th . And I was told the sleeve doesn't help people with acid reflux , for some reason the doctor decided for sleeve . Does anyone know if the acid reflux could get better or worse with the sleeve ? Thank you Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App @@vivi16 It depends on the cause of the acid reflux. Do you have a hiatal hernia that will be repaired at the same time? If so - that's probably what's causing the reflux. I have mild reflux (based on my GI Study) and having the Sleeve. My Dr felt there would be no issues. I'm also on the 18th!! good luck!

I will get some on my way home. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
