Good luck.

I also have about the same health issues. I'm doing my last surgical class next week and hope to have my RNY not to long after. The RNY is about the best chance to reduce or eliminate insulin usage. Good luck to you.

I use body fortress whey protien choc.with a little sf torrani caramel, it tastes like a caramel mocha latte. Also the van.protien and torrani rasberry combo is very good. I'm just trying them pre- op. My 2nd surgical class is on the 14th , I'm hoping for my surgery soon after. Good luck with your surgery

Hi, I'm 59 just have surgical class on the 14th then surgery (rny) hopefully early september. My surgeon also said rny because of my diabettes, high blood pessure and cholesteral. I also have acalasia that he will be taking care of during the same procedure. Good luck to us all.

Walmart.com has a deal on whey protien from body fortress. 3 tubs for $43 free shipping at $50 so i order a couple sf torrani flavors and have it shipped for free

Good luck Carol, my 2nd visit is the 14th. I'm hoping for a late Aug. or early Sept. date. It is very exciting getting this close.

I'm the same height and weight only older. Get it done now. People told me I didn't need wls either. Now I have diabetes , high blood pressure and cholesteral. I want to be around to spend more time with my grand kids, its no fun just watching them play. I have my psych eval on monday and surgical class 2 wks after that. I hope to have my rny in sept. Good luck to you.

Go on walmart.com they have all flavors. Make sure you get sugar free. They ship to home for free after you spend $50 or you can have it shipped to your local walmart for free.

Thank you, I never checked that web site. I'm stuck on body fortress protien powder and torani sf caramel. I just hope after my surgery that my taste buds don't change too much.

Walmart.com has all the flavors . 12oz bottle is $3.98

I have my psych eval in 3wks, then my surgicalclass and I hope surgery in sept. Keep at it the time goes by fairly fast.

I'm having trouble chewing and sipping. I down loaded the eat slower app and it seems to help. My surgery isn't till sept. I hope

I'm jelous. I'm only going for my med eval on monday, then all the rest of it. I can't wait to be a postie too. I hope all is going as planned and your not in too much pain. Good luck

You can appeal the denial. Don't let them win.

This is my 1st post also, I have aclalasia and my surgeon sugesested RNY with that procedure. I am disabled and can't exersise , My med eval is next week . I hope the rest goes fast. The benifits outweigh the risks so I believe we are doing the right thing. I' hoping that post op I will get rid of my diabetes. Hbp and soom pain. There is lots of hope just reading about all the other operations and stories. It seems like between this site and other support groups we have lots to fall back on. Good luck, I'll be following your progress
