Hopeful16 17 Posted November 5, 2016 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? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

okiegirl1980 73 Posted November 5, 2016 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 Sent from my iPad using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did anyone else go home same day? 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..
