I can definitely relate to your rant about your mom. I am very fortunate that my mom is coming in to be with me during my surgery. She lives in Texas and I live in Indiana. I am an only child and she is worried about me having surgery. The only surgery I have every had was my tonsils when I was 7. However, she also keeps asking me why couldn't I just keep eating right and keep losing weight the "normal" way. Really? She is 5' tall and never has weighed over 130 pounds. I have always been taller and larger than her. She has never dealt with weight issues and cannot relate to my situation. I lover her to the moon and back but I am not looking forward to some of the negativity that is coming with her next weekend because my surgery date is August 27th.

I am looking to continue loosing weight before my surgery hopefully in late July or August. I was looking for recomendations for the best/most affordable Protein Shakes and supplements. I work a very strange schedule and it's hard for me to get in 3 meals a day and something I can take on the go would work out best for me.
Thanks!

I just had bypass on the 27 th and like you this was my first major surgery. My advice would to be distract yourself the day before. The straight liquid was tough on me. The surgery was much simpler than I expected and the pain was minimal. A good support system is extremely helpful too. Good Luck!
