  1. Finally Fit in Florida

    13 days and counting!

    I have tried Bariatric fusion and unjury (the injury is my favorite). But have you found this thread? TONS of smoothie recipes. :-) http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/177893-a-huge-list-of-protein-drink-recipes/

    Looking for a 8-7 sleeve buddy :)

    Hey everyone! I am 8/7, too. I start my pre-op only one week before, but I have been trying to "loosely" follow it for about the past two weeks. I am down almost 10 pounds during that time alone. I'm in Florida.

    Blurry Vision

    Hello Jenn608 - I just saw this in another link. One person posted that it is caused by the patch they give you behind your ear for nausea. Apparently it is the same med as they use to dilate your eyes. See this post: http://www.bariatricpal.com/topic/259057-post-op-blurry-vision/?hl=%2Bblurry+%2Bvision#entry2901864 Hope that is what is going on with you.... :-)

    My First Post

    Hello to you, too, Kathy! Like you, I have been stalking the board and reading books. The Big Book on the GS is EXCELLENT!

    My First Post

    Hello everyone! I am Finally Fit in Florida and this is my first post. My first visit with my surgeon was June 20th. I have visited the psychiatrist, nutritionist, and had a liver/gallbladder ultrasound. On Friday, I was given my surgery date: August 7th. :-) I have been reading anything I can get my hands on (including this site) and I have been ordering my Protein shakes and Vitamins. My insurance does not cover bariatric procedures, so it looks like I will be having it done in conjunction with another procedure and paying for the bariatric portion myself. Although I am new to the journey, I am not new to the battle of the bulge. :-) I am 42 and have fought my weight since my early 20's. I am a chronic yo-yo dieter - extremely committed during the diets and successful at losing the weight, but the minute I stop the diet or pills, I gain the weight right back. I start my exercise program and vitamins/biotin tomorrow and my liquid diet on July 30th. I want to take a minute and introduce myself. Thank you to all of you for the information that I have found thus far and for the support that I know you will provide me. I am thankful to have so many people with whom I can share this journey of transformation.
