peggers

Finally made the chocolate Protein balls yesterday they are really good! I added some sugar free maple Syrup in place of the water! Has a good taste and hit that sweet spot just right!

Prob depends on how strict your Dr. is. i have been told that my Dr. is VERY strict. we even have to take a test prior to surgery on all we have learned, and post op requirements. I would do Protein and shakes the rest of the week, and water..Good luck:)

Very happy to have some new support buddies!! We can help each other thru this experience,and it will be interesting ride I think!! I am really starting today implementing some of the suggestions from the NUT I attended today. She mentioned to start using a salad plate at this point, to help adjust to the much smaller amount of food we will be able to eat after surgery. Also as i am a nurse who works at night, I was worried about the no caffeine, esp. so far prior to surgery, I am going to start doing half caf and half Decaf, instead of all decaf. So baby steps..

Hi, i am new on my journey also. I have meet with NUT, been to seminalr, had first part of Psych eval, meet with Surgeon. I am praying for a may date. I have a low BMI, and cannot lose weight. or I will be out.I do have High BP, and high cholesterol. I am just tired of being heavy, and as a nurse I am scared of diabetes and the cardiac issues my family has. Since we are both new, hoping we can encourage each other here!!!
