January 8th surgery date. Anyone as nervous as I am? Also has anyone tried a Multivitamin that they like? I tried BariMelts and I do not like them.

I have the Tespo Vitamin dispenser and they aren't bad at all.

I bought the Premier Protein banana cream and I love it and my body didn't react to it so that's wonderful. My nutritionalist was looking into why so many people love this brand. I guess is unusual because normally they are told to go with a isolate rather than an casemate Protein but users aren't having an issue with it after surgery. the banana cream is really good and not gritty at all. Kinda past like a liquid banana pudding. I'm going to try to other flavors as well so I'll have plenty on hand after surgery. I'm still waiting on my date and insurance approval. I have finished all my test and once the labs get back they will submit to insurance

I think that I have tried all of the Premier Protein drinks. Carmel is good and I sometimes put it in my coffee. Banana cream, chocolate and vanilla are good. I have tried to blend them with ice and now think they taste better right out of the container. I have tried the premier Protein Bars and I love love the salted caramel and the double chocolate ( I think that is the name) I recently bought the nectar brand to try. Many have said how good they are. I bought a sampler pack so I can see which ones I like for surgery. Still trying to find out which Vitamins to use since I do not like the Barimelt.

Haven't thought about Vitamins yet. What don't you like and what are you looking for?

I did not like the Barimelts because they were chaulky and gross tasting. They dont actually melt but as chewables. I want something that is easy and tastes good for a Vitamin.

      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.
