Well going through my 3month long pre op diet i have lost 36lbs or so and I have been approved and my date is set for june 9th. I was wondering what i should maybe have on hand for the first couple of days home from the hospital? also I will be having the tube coming out of my old stomach so I was wondering if anyone else had one and if it was easier to crush your vitamins and pills to go down the tube or if i should just break down and buy the liquid vitamins?

I'm happy for you. It was the best thing I've ever done. I just did chewables the orange are not to bad. Bless you as you start your journey. All you need when you get home is SF pops, SF jello, 100% juice which you will do 1/2 water, clear soup broth. thats about it. Anything else you need you can get later. tina

I would say the chewables if you can chew. The liqiud vitamins are kinda nasty. Unfortunately I can chew a vitamin. So I have to get used the yucky liquid stuff. Congrats on having a surgery date. I wish you a speedy recovery.
