I also was able to prI've 6 months of documented efforts to lose weight. I got lucky since I did.not even know I nreseda it. I guess all the stars were aligned
  14. you are all a very inspirational group. I am having my surgery next wednesday and I am very nervous. I only started the process last month. I guess all the stars were aligned because my insurance was approved quickly along with everyone else acting quickly. I just started reading the board my dr put the pre,ip.packet in. the mail they do not think I needed to do a long preip diet. I kind of feel clueless now after reading everything. where do you get the protein shakes and which ones are the best. thanks for any tips

    4 Months + A Few

    I am having my surgery on 4/4 and plan on returning to work the following week. I am glad to hear someone say they also did. I am not considered high risk which might help with recovery since I really don't even know what to expect after. Hopefully ignorance is bliss and I will just go with the flow

    Nervous About Surgery

    what is the average weight loss the first month. are most people happy they did it. any regret? the sleeve was really my only choice . most people who I know who had the lap band did not lose and I don't know anyone who made iit, to their goal.

    Nervous About Surgery

    how long do you have to be on the pre surgery diet . the doctors office sent out the packet today. the doctor said I will only be in. the hospital one day he does not consider me high risk since I do not have high blood pressure and my gnu is under 40. he is a highly recommended doctor does this sound right?
