Does anyone use crystal light during the pre op diet?

I have another suggestion for something to flavor Water. It's called "True Lemon". It also comes in lime and orange. Check out the website: www.truelemon.com

It is made from crystallized juice and the oil from the peel. It comes in individual packets that will flavor 8 to 10 ounces of Water quite nicely, or you can buy a shaker of the lemon and lime, which I use to cook with...flavor veggies or meat.

There is no artificial sweeteners. It contains dextrose, citric acid, juice and oil, maltodextrin, and ascorbic acid.

0 calories, 0 carbs, 0 Protein, 0 fat, and they claim 0 sugar, but dextrose and maltodextrin are forms of sugar. Still one serving has less than 1 gram of carbs.

I also like Kellogg's Special K Protein powder.

Hi everyone,

I am on day 3 of pre-op liquiid diet and I just wanted to know if anyone knew if we could drink the Special K H20 Protein Water mix.

I drank one today and it was very filling. Just want to see if anyone has heard anything about this.

GOOD LUCK TO ALL OF YOU! I JUST PRAY I CAN COMPLETE A WEEK ON MY DIET! I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO GET EASIER EVERY DAY BUT IT HASN'T YET! :cursing: HOPING IT WILL BY THE END OF THE WEEK! I GET MY BAND ON THE 28TH! CAN'T WAIT!!

      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?
