    Hate protein

    I tried the Fuzzy Navel last night and dumped it! But I think maybe after I shake it up, I'll put in the fridge to settle down. It was foamy, and that bothered me. Maybe once they are settled, I can drink them.

    Hate protein

    Hey SoccerMomma, question! Would it help with the chocolate ones if I mix up and put in the fridge for a while? I'm really digging this lemonade, but I only had the one sample! Gotta figure out something else till I can order some!

    Is it normal!?

    Try starting liquid diet while on your period!!!!!!!! I think I'm being TESTED!!!!
  5. I feel like I am FLOATING AWAY!!! I'm on day 2 and I even got up twice last night to go and I NEVER get up anymore!!!
  6. It doesn't really matter what brand you get. It will probably be a matter of what you can tolerate tastewise.

    Hate protein

    I have found I can drink the Syntrax Nextar Roadside Lemonade with a lemonade Crystal Light packet in it. It just has to be really cold!
  8. I also have a specific list of brands of protein and vitamins I will need to take. Ask if you are not sure!!!
  9. I haven't had my RNY yet, but had my gallbladder removed in 2002. My Dr. recommended taking a fiber pill every day. I've also heard that probiotics will also help.

    June Dates (class of 2013)

    If all goes well, I will have my surgery in June!!!
  11. Dr. wants me to start out with a 2 week liquid diet, then strict calorie diet. BLECH! I have to do 3 months for my insurance to approve me. Gonna spend tonight making my jello!!
  12. Yeah, I have to do 3 months diet under a Dr's supervision. Luckily it's not all liquid diet!! HAHA!!

    No pre-op diet?

    I start 2 weeks tomorrow, and will have to do another 2 weeks before surgery. I'm sure he will have you do some type of liquid diet before hand.

    No pre-op diet?

    My insurance requires me to do 3 month Dr. supervised diet. Check with your insurance to see if they require anything like that.
  15. Well I bought a Muscle Milk after I left my appt. I got Cookies and Cream and it's VERY good!
  16. Tomorrow will be my first of 3 appts with the dietician. The Dr. said he wanted me to start with 2 week liquid diet. I've been sooo bad since I saw the surgeon! I guess I've been having my food funeral!! Although it has been since March 15 since I've had any type of soda or caffine. I've ordered some Syntrax Nectar samples, I have already apologized to my husband in advance for biting his head off in the next week weeks, and stocked up on SF jello. I guess I just need some reassurance that I can do this!!! I'm doing this for my health and to be able to actually enjoy life instead of just living!

    food processor? ?

    I've got a Black and Decker from Wal-Mart and love it! I'm still pre op but I use mine alot for different things!!

    Loose skin

    I think they usually want you to keep at goal. for a year before they will consider surgery. I could be wrong though!
  19. I' pre op but I'm on a multi vitamin, vitamin B complex, iron and vitamin D. Only the vitamin D is prescription. But right now, CVS has their brand of vitamins buy one get one free!
  20. It's like it's all I ever think about!!! With keeping track of all the Dr's appts and supplements to take and all this is even before surgery!!! I wake up thinking about it, I go to sleep thinking about it. I dream about it. I sit here at work and think about it. I google and youtube everything gastric bypass! Please someone tell me I'm not alone?!?!?!?
  21. No, my family is also going to make the change with me!!

    SUPER EXCITED!

    I've already done all my pre op testing, and my surgery isn't even scheduled yet! I'm looking probably June for surgery date. I'll have to have blood work done again, but all the tests they wanted done, I've already went through. Another lady I know that's having the sleeve with another Dr, she has surgery in 2 weeks and is just now doing all her pre op testing. It really depends on the Dr. I was really upset at first about all the testing my Dr. required that my insurance didn't. But I'm glad we did it! They have found I am low on several vitamins and am on lots of supplements now.

    Heart shaped badages!

    Those are addorable!!!!!
  25. My Dr. is suggesting the dietician do 2 week liquid diet first, then again 2 weeks before surgery. I'm not sure if it's because I have so much to loose, or just what.
