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.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
