  1. What is your pre op diet? My Dr. had me drink two protein drinks and one lean cuisine for one week and the second week I could have only three protein drinks a day. I could have water and sugar free popsicles but that's it.
  2. It's great! It has no taste at all, I really like it. I have it and some whey protein isolate powder and I really prefer the egg white protein powder. Thanks for the answer! I've been worried about it.
  3. Kathy - Great minds think alike
  4. Sneak it in, and bring water and gatorade, if they ask, you bought them at the concession. But they won't ask Bring a big purse with ur neccesities inside.
  5. Ahh well that is sad, so many people are being mislead. I thought they were at least good for someone. -__- What a terrible product. I did want to ask you, OTR, if you knew if Jayy Robbs egg white protein powder is okay for us sleevers. I've been using that under the recommendation of my NUT, but I can't find anyone here who uses it. Do you know if its ok to use as a protein supplement?
  6. I'm sorry you're going thru this with limited help. It seems like it is very serious. That reading is extremely dangerously low. Please consult with someone at your drs office. Something this serious could be devastating if not taken care of, wishing you the best!!
  7. I think they are fine for non-sleevers. The product is only non- beneficial to us sleevers because we can't break it down.
  8. Hi NtvTxn I'm a little over 3 months out, I have 30 more lbs to lose to be at Dr. D's goal for me ... I just love Dr Davidson, he is so smart and I know he really cares about our success. I still have quite a bit of restriction. I actually saw Dr. D. and found out..I'm trying to eat too much I guess I still have to wrap my mind around the fact that a few bites will fill me up It's so nice to see your great success and to know we share the same wonderful Dr.
  9. Nate, that is awesome!! Keep it up!!!
  10. It's ok, you can be that person again. Tomorrow is a new day. If you mess up, try again. Getting off track and gaining some weight does not mean your doomed. Things happen, and now its time to get back on track. Have faith!
  11. Looking ahead- did I read that right? Your having to make yourself vomit every time you eat unless its soup?
  12. Oh ok, I hope this gets resolved for you. How has your hunger been? Is it reduced? What about your weight loss so far? When u ask about the bougie size, I wonder if the Dr. could say about how much stomache he was able to remove. My thoughts are with you!
  13. You're still only getting liquids right? I didn't feel any restriction until I started solids and now I wish my restriction wasn't so much.. give yourself time, I felt hungry and everything for a long while after surgery. I even said I thought he made my sleeve too big. He didn't, I read my op report and he used a 32 bougie.. Give yourself until 6 weeks when u start having some solids.
  14. Jrzydva, my prayers are with you! God bless you on your journey! And welcome to your new life
  15. Susie!!!! *hugs* You're not alone! And your doing great on your weight loss!! If you ever need to talk, send me a message! I'm here for ya! I was sleeved may 15th and my weight loss is 50 lbs..you were sleeved in July! See how good your doing? you got this
  16. Hey Jeff!, welcome!!!! So many peoples sex lives have just gotten better and better! Take a peak in the forum *man's room* and the *ladies room* Some great funny and honest open discussions in there. I think you've made a wonderful decision and you're going to be very pleased
  17. Hi ndn-rn, can you tell me where to find the papaya enzyme tabs? Sounds like a good thing to have handy.
