  1. I believe you should be okay. My approval was done in less than 2 weeks.
  2. Prepping to go home. Worst part was pain from drain.
  3. Good morning surgery buddies. Let's get up and claim this victory. I have to be at the hospital at 0530. See you on the loser's bench. Let's live our best life!
  4. Surgery tomorrow, 1/21, so I booked a hotel, here in Annapolis, so I don't have to travel tomorrow. Hospital says to be there at 0530. Best of luck to us all.
  5. Check it out. Im in southern Maryland. I have to find our what is near me. My surgery is Monday, the 21st. I should check on support now.
  6. I am trying patch md. However, last night I noticed the zinc and selenium were low. One of my doctor suggestions is NutraMetrix. It is a liquid you take one a day and I add an iron and biotin patch.
  7. I don't have to do liquids, but I do have to do high protein. See below.
  8. I am someone who has come back, as I need a revision.

  10. I had my pre-op yesterday (1/8/19). I actually had 5 appointments. 1) pre-op (surgery is 1/21/19), 2) heart sonogram with cardiologist, 3) blood work, 4) dietitian, and 5) stress test wit the cardiologist. I was surprised to learn I do not have to do clears for 2 week pre-op. My sheet says either 4 protein shakes a day or low calorie, low carbohydrate dies of no more than 50-60 carbs per day. No snack type foods, sweets, or starches (bread, rice, pasta, potatoes, corn, peas, cereal, crackers, etc.) I am having a revision from sleeve to bypass.
  11. Id like to try Devotion Nutrition's angel food cake and their flex flavors. But, I've been using GenePro. 30 grams protein in 1 tablespoon.
  12. Hon, UPS is at my home practically every day with an amazon delivery.
  13. Does Washington hospital center have anything? Im in Maryland and my surgery will be in annapolis. My last surgery was at inova fair oaks
  14. Southern Maryland here. Surgery 1/21
  15. Johnny B. Sometimes you need to be reminded. I had started gaining and hope my revision surgery will get me back on track.
  16. tHANKS. I go on Tuesday, 1/8/19 to see dietitian, pre-op, heart sonogram and stress test, with cardiologist. I'm guessing they will give me the diet on the 8th
  17. Wow. We have similar situations/histories. My sleeve was in 2015. My stomach is folded over, causing a stricture and I have a hiatal hernia. I'm not really nervous. I'm kind of excited, to be honest. How long were you in the hospital? I'm glad to hear your recovery is easier this time around.
  18. Anxious about the pre op diet. Feel like I'm saying goodbye to carbs
  19. My surgery date is the same as you
