Post op Diet??

I will be having my surgery on the 21st and am just not sure if the Dr. will give me a diet plan and a list of the pills i will need to take? Any help would be great!! Thanks so much!!

don't worry, your nutritionist and/or doctor will go over your post-op diet with you. everyone is a little different, so i can only tell you what my diet is. see my "day 4" post on our board for the rundown. Rae

Hi Francesca, I am on my post op diet today and tomorrow for a Monday surgery. I am to only have liquids, water, can be with crystal lite, diet jello, diet popcylces, broth and protein shakes. Pretty blah, but it hasn't been too bad. The surgery nurse told me to take my nexium and toprol for blood pressure only Monday morning. Good luck

My post op will be the same and the one above me mentioned. Except my surgeon doesn't let us have jello. I will be on Prevacid everyday. They will write down your diet and medications for you before you leave the hospitals. All hospitals are required to do that. I'm having surgery on the 21st also. Keep posting here. We can be partners in losing! ...Jill

Hi Jill, Thanks for your response, are you getting excited? I'm anxious for tomorrow to get here to get this done, seems like I have been waiting for ever. My husband is alos having lapband, sceduled for the 28th, so we will be in this together, think it will be much easier since we will be eating the same things. It will be nice to be able to talk to someelse going throught the same issues, Good luck, Cathy

Well that sounds great!! I cant wait for the day to get here!! It is gonna be great!! Yay!! We will be on the lossing side in 9 days!!! Woo Hoo!!!
