  2. Try ground up chicken breast or 95% lean beef grounded up. It packs a lot of protein. Cheese sticks are good also. I have also found lightly salted dry roasted edamame is good!

  10. You are the only one who can decide what is best for you. I had a bmi of 36 however I also have a fatty liver, high triglycerides, and a recent diagnosis of diabetes. The diabetes was the final straw for me. Some of my closest friends tried to talk me out of the surgery. I am now 1 month out, I look and feel so much better than I did before. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Stay strong!! Patti

  13. Sorry I actually have highmark bc/bs
  14. The sweet potatoes are good too!
  15. I have capital BC/BS. I had regular bloodwork, gallbladder US and h pylori test. Mine came out positive. The cure for that sucks.
  16. Did you vomit? Ovarian area? Have you had a recent bowel movement?
  17. Fear is normal. The worst part is the first few days post op and it is the gas pains. I suggest walking ALOT and a heating pad also helped. I have no regrets. Good luck!
  18. I drink a cup of white chocolate caramel cappuccino before work.
  19. I LOVE DR HARRISON!! He is so down to earth and absolutely great!!
  20. I felt like getting up and leaving right up until they took me into surgery! Your feelings are normal. I was sleeved 3-19-13. I am glad I did it. Good luck!!
  21. I live in Allentown,PA. Dr. Harrison did my surgery at LVH on 3-19-13.
  22. Why are you off your zoloft? You need to take it.
