Pre-op and post-op prep!! List style



Recommended Posts

I’m going to the store today to stock myself up on everything I’m going to need for after surgery! I thiiink I have everything I need for my pre-op diet. Now I’m going to the store to get:
-SF Jello mix (I found a way to make jello Protein shots)
-SF pudding mix
-Broths
-Apple sauce
-Baby food
-Gas-X
-Miralax
-Docusate
-Crystal light(even though I already have a ton)
-Small spoon and forks(someone suggested this)

I’ve already got:
-Tons of protein powder
-2.5 ounce little cups
-Small plates and bowls
-Popsicle molds
-Vitamins
-Food scale

Anything I’m missing?! I’ve been drowning myself in reading and finding anything I can online to help me be as prepared as I can be! Any advice or tips would be very appreciated!

If you don't already have a water bottle with the ounces on it you might want to pick up one or order one. It really helped me reach my Water goals.

I got mine on Amazon

My suggestion is not to buy a ton of anything because your tastes and tolerance to some foods may change after the surgery. Good luck!

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
