  2. Good luck on your journey, was wondering what do you typed when looking up people who have been sleeved on you tube
  3. Please keep me posted on how it went
  4. I would like to know when mixing the protein powder does it have to be with water? Can you add milk or almond milk? What about adding fruits? I just want to know the Do's and Don't's to when drinking your protein. Thanks
  5. I was schedule to have the endoscopy done this Thursday morning at 715 am, I have to be at work by 9. So my question is will I be ok to go to work? Will my throat hurt? Would I be able to eat properly? Thanks everyone for taking the time to answer my question.
  6. Don't sound so discourage. Think about how big that is, and how if you weren't sleeve and lost all that weight in two weeks you'd be jumping up for joy
  7. You truly look like a totally different person, congratulations on your success. How much weight did you lose? Did you workout? What about excess skin? I still haven't had surgery and just want to know what to do in order to be successful at it.

  10. So today I saw the gastroentologist and was very lucky to get an appointment for the endoscopy for this Thursday and my results should be faxed over to my surgeon by Monday. So now here are where my questions come because once everything is cleared I will just be given a date to come and have my surgery without seeing anyone; 1. How soon should I start my liquid diet? Should it be more then 2 weeks? 2. What type of liquid diet should I be on? 3. I was reading on some papers that I was given that I can't swallow any pills for the first month, if this is true how do you get your Vitamins in? I take topomax for my migraines and accutane for my acne, will I have to stop taking them and if so for how long? This is it for now I just want to be prepared when I get a date for surgery. Thanks to everyone who takes the time to answer my questions.
  11. Are they filling? Are you hungry in between meals? Which shakes are you drinking?
  12. I see alot of you went to México? I would like to know how did you make the decision on which doctor to chose. I might have to consider this if they don't schedule my surgery date before my insurance expires.
  13. I understand everyone here! But my model is they are going to talk about you cause you are too big and cause your losing weight however you wish to do so. So I define don't pay mind to anyone of those haters. Lol

  17. Wow I didn't know I made to forum of the same thing. Thank you for the support and while yes they knew of an endoscopy their next available appointment is not till May
  18. So today I meet my surgeon who is so great, but after looking at all my lab work I'm missing an endoscopy which was not on my list because when I first went there I wanted the lab band. So now I have to look for an endoscopic who will give me a quick appointment because if that wasn't bad enough my insurance ends on May 31st. I am trying to stay in faith but this is such a let down.
  19. What about the procedure that starts with a Q what is it called
