Recommended Posts

Tomorrow I go in for the sleeve! I am excited and nervous of course. But I goofed up and it is sunday. I cannot remember if I can have Protein Shakes or not today. I know no solids for sure. But just cant remember I'd Protein is allowed. Any insight?

Good luck tomorrow! Yes, I was allowed Protein Shakes the day before the surgery. I wasn't on a liquid diet pre-op, but was on a calorie-restricted diet.

Good Luck!! Its going to change your life for the good!

As to what you can and can't, the surgeon should of given you a list of do's and don'ts. My day before it was strictly only liquids you could see through. coffee was part of that too. It's like a colonoscopy, but allow for the red Jello.

Let us know how things go!

      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.
