My surgery is not till October but I need to get thing's together. I need a list for the hospital stay to recovery and to drink on the 2 week liquid diet. I bought Ispure, some broths and Lady Boss Protein Shake and a variety of Protein Shakes from Bastric Pal. Help!

I can't speak to the liquid diet pre-op because I didn't have to do that, but I can tell you what I packed. I put a few pairs of underwear, socks, some loose shorts and shirts as well as a comfy sports bra. I didn't wear any of it. I also brought Shampoo, conditioner, body wash, toothbrush, toothpaste, and other small toiletries because hospital stuff sucks but again, all I used was the toothbrush and toothpaste. I brought a book too but didn't read it. If I wasn't sleeping I was walking on the unit, during the other times I played on my phone. I didn't even watch TV while I was there.

I like GENEPRO Protein powder. It’s unflavored and is a small scoop for 30g protein. I mix it with Water and crystal light powder and cannot tell its even in there. You can buy it at GNC or on Amazon.< br>
Thanks that's a lot of protein.

I do the Premier Protein shakes, also 30 grams of protein. Need at least 60 grams of protein per day.

My nutritionist also recommended (in addition to regular whey protein isolate) to have collagen peptides to add to other foods/broths. And I bought some premier protein clear to so I can get some protein when drinking fluids. The Protein Shakes should be primary source in the first days post-op... the other stuff supplements other protein in the diet.

      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.
