My nutritionist recommended never drinking alcohol again. But this is not realistic. Moderation is key.

Thanks so much for your summary. I am pre-op. I read every summary written by anyone about their surgery experience to help prepare myself for my own surgery.

Hummus can be a great substitute for mayonnaise on low-carb bread for sandwiches. There is hummus at Trader Joe's (I do not have a financial interest in Trader Joe's or any hummus company) with and without tahini. There also are many flavors.

I do not have any financial interest in a tofu company.

biotin also strengthens nails

I found biotin capsules at the vitamin shoppe

I have a relative who had the lap and a few years ago. Today that relative drinks milkshakes daily. I know personally four people who had the bypass. Two regained back all of their weight into two years because they went back to old eating habits. The other two maintain their weight loss through exercise and careful attention to their diet. I do not personally k ow anyone who has had the VSG. I will have the VSG in November of this year. I am highly aware of the risk to regain weight. Even today, months before the procedure, I am paying close attention to how I eat. I do know that the risk of regaining is there. This forum is helping me to understand better the types of changes to make with the VSG.

Here is the cold brew system that I bought and have given as gifts: http://www.amazon.com/Toddy-T2N-Cold-Brew-System/dp/B0006H0JVW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1343603157&sr=8-1&keywords=toddy+cold+new+coffee

My nutritionist told me that caffeine stimulates the appetite so she recommended that I get off all caffeine, even in tea. So I am - pre-op - adjusting to decaffeinated coffee. The cold brew method makes decaf taste great.

Thanks so much for the information about Immitrex! I had not idea that it was available as an injectable. I will let my physician know.

The Toddy Cold Brew System is the one that I use - it is great - I use decaf in it. I also have GERD so the reduction in acid achieved by the Toddy Cold Brew System is helpful.

I bought a "cold brew" coffee maker that filters out acid in coffee. I use it with decaf. You put the coffee in your refrigerator and mix it with water or milk. You can hear it up or drink it as iced coffee. The decreased and helps. I am presleeve and planning to use this technique postsleeve.
