My surgery is April 23, I feel a little lost, my doctor has not talked to me about post op procedures. Doctor hasn't done any lab work on me, i'm just suppose to go in the day of my surgery and thats it. Is that normal?

My date is Nov. 11. Just started liquid diet yesterday and am bored to tears. Also miss eating dinner with my husband, but it's hard to sit through when he eats a burger and chips and I have a shake!.

I'm going in 11/09/2016 .. I'm a little nervous. I've heard such mixed reviews about the surgery . I just found this group and I have so many questions. Like My doctor wants you to do a 7-10 day liquid diet before the surgery which I am currently really struggling with . Anyone have to do this? Also regarding the hospital stay my surgeon asked me if I was interested in going home same day. I was ecstatic and said YES!! but now after talking to a few people they all say I should really stay overnight .. Did anyone else go home same day?

Good Luck to everyone :)

I am scheduled for November 28. I am very scared and excited at the same time.

Which Protein powders have people tried and liked? I found a sample pack of nectar on Amazon that has 15 flavors. I also ordered the unflavored Isopure to mix in with other foods. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

I really like a few of the nectar Proteins , I use jay robb, Isopure premade, premier and berry Atkins

hi I'm the 9th as well, and definitely nervous but excited.. please feel free to ask any questions and I'll try helping the best I can.. though I would like to go home same day I figure it's safer to stay the night and get close medical attention if needed..

      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?

      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.
