I have been so prepared through every step of the way, until now. I am overloaded with information. My pre-surgery apt. is less than a month away and I just got an overload of information. I feel like I am going to forget something, and I am an OCD level of organized kind of person. I am going to order my pre-op diet protein soon because shipping gets delayed a lot these days. I am allowed to have certain food during the pre-op diet also so I figured out what i would actually eat off of the list and calculated how many servings of each I would need and now I need to make a list so when the time comes, I know exactly what I need to buy. My nutritionist said POST-op protein is of my choice, but the first ingredient should be "whey protein isolate". Ok no problem, but then I started looking and there is no READY TO DRINK protein that does. The same brands of powder do though. I even went to the UNJURY website and their pre-made drinks do not have it in the ingredients either. So, I am thinking the pre-made drinks don't reflect the same ingredients?? (I will ask next time I talk to her). Have to get my birth control switched because it can't be Estrogen based and mine is. And I have to do it ASAP as this needs to happen at least 60 days BEFORE surgery. My other meds I will just stop taking because none of them are "health" related. GERD pills are the main thing, and we are in hopes that the BYPASS eliminates that anyway so I guess we will find out right away. I could go on and on, but you get the point and most of you already know all this. I needed to rant. Thanks
