I didn’t know I could do chewables. I’ve seen people taking liquid supplements right after surgery and I asked the dr about it and he said we would discuss it right before surgery but I’m trying to be prepared. What did you take?

Who doing your surgery? You will be giving everything you need to know on the 5, my time schedule is the same as your. There is plenty of turkey and chicken bones around start saving them to make chicken broth you be sip on that for the next 2 weeks, propel Water, lemon or lime water, plenty of water and Protein Drink with very-very low sugar there a list they going to give you, it’s called a liver shrinking diet. This is to reduce the size of your liver. Follow it to the letter. We’re here waiting for the next journey.

My surgeons office sells Bariatric Advantage products at a discounted rate. So I used all their stuff

Bariatrac advantage chewables twice a day

Bariatrac advantage black cherry sublingual B12 once a day

Bariatrac advantage calcium citrate chewables 500mg twice a day

I don't use their Protein Powder because it's overpriced taste bad and makes me sick. But those 3 products are all tasty, easy to take, and designed specifically for bariatric patients.

I'm very happy and would recommend any of them, plus it's exactly what my surgeon prefers us using so it's a win win

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
