  1. Hello All, Hope you are all doing well. Thank God I am 5 months out and 75 pounds down!! I was wondering i anyone can help me here with some nutrition here. tried to call my Nutritionist today but she was out of the office. I try to stick to the plan the Nutritionist gave out to us pre-surgery as best as I can. Yesterday I looked at the Natural Peanut Butter jar (made from pure peanuts and some salt) and it had 8grams Protein which is awesome but i think 12 grams fat (not so awesome) per serving. Is it bad decision to have half a serving a day.. so I can dip some peanut butter into apple as healthy snack?or did nutritionist not have that in mind? Thanks so much for your help!!! Rachael!
  2. Hello all, I am 3 days post op and find my left side to be having severe pain. Is this relatively normal?? Thanks
  3. Im having surgery in week!!! Im desperate to know ... what do you wish you would have brought to hospital for your hospital stay??? Thanks Rachael
  4. Hello fellow sleevers, Thank you for listening and perhaps providing some insight and advice. I am sitting here crying as I type this post. Part of my insurance requirement is that I attend 6 months of nutrition visits. On top of that you are not allowed to gain weight during this period. I am finding this so frustrating and difficult. If i could lose weight on my own I would not be having the surgery. How do they expect me to lose weight on my own??? If i gain any weight my insurance will deny me the surgery! The pressure is too great for me t handle! Im having such a hard time with this. Thanks for listening.
