Scheduled!!
Hello Pennsylvania!!
After going back and forth a bit with the scheduler, and several moments of panic thinking I was going to have to wait until the end of August - I am scheduled for June 25th! Pre-admissions testing is this Wednesday - and I have never been so excited to be looking at a 10 day liquid diet!!
Have an excellent evening!

Good luck, Lauren. I was blessed. My surgeon used the open procedure for my RNY, so no liquid diet was necessary for my surgery.
I highly recommend Isopure Protein Drink, Grape Frost, clear liquid that has 40 mg. of protein in each bottle. Your 10 day liquid diet will give you the opportunity to learn what you can do for your post-op recuperation. One of my favorites is a smoothy made with no sugar added yogurt, skim milk and berries. I add ice so that it stays cold. It is so satisfying. You can add protein powder to help make your post-op protein goals. I use AnyWhey protein powder. Another favorite is a chocolate, sugar free Carnations Instant Breakfast, a scoop of my protein powder and 8 ounces of skim milk. Taste like chocolate milk with about 30 grams of protein in it.
What hospital are you going to. Oh, wait, I won't be able to visit you because I am having sinus surgery that same day.
Hugs,
Trish

Seek always to do some good, somewhere. Every man has to seek in his own way to realize his true worth. You must give some time to your fellow man. For remember, you don't live in a world all your own. Your brothers are here too.

My Mantra is that I do not determine my success by the number hanging in my closet, nor will I let the scale determine that success either. . . It is through trial and error I will continue to grow and succeed. . . Laureen
