@@betterlife7 yes people will judge you for doing the surgery but they are also judging you for being obese for being a woman for eating poorly while being obese people judge for all sorts of reasons the only thing you can control is your reaction to the judgement. Oh and another thing if your weight is killing you like its killing me I have a bmi of 50 right now will you let peoples judgement stop you from getting healthy and die

I'm 24 getting it done next year pm me if you want to talk

Honestly I would choose bypass or sleeve for you my Surgeon doesn't even do the band anymore with 180 pounds to lose I'm thinking more bypass. I have 140 to lose but I am getting sleeve but that's just because I don't want dumping syndrome

I just would have felt sadness pure sadness I feel sorry for folks like them because they clearly have a problem but don't know or have given up all hope how to fix it

My last nut class is in February so I'm looking at March or April

My nut put me on a plan and I've been losing steadily from it 60-80 grams of protein a day 64 ounces of non caffeinated fluids a day no starches limited whole grains and load up on fruits and vegetables. Oh also no juice Gatorade or Powerade

The fruity one says its a performance drink so it has carbs not sure you want that

Good luck everyone

I wasn't told to eliminate carbs just the bad over processed white ones I can have whole grain pasta bread and red skinned potatoes but honestly since eliminating the bad carbs I rarely crave any carbs

I'm not really a bingger but I do eat emotionally and even though I am pre surgery I've been working hard to break that habbit. Right now its day by day. I won't say I'll never need therapy because I really do but I'm trying on my own first

Soontobesleeved92 you can pm me on here or find me on Facebook my name on there is Jessica ellision-correa

I second the Walmart is vile plus I looked at the price difference for members at gnc and Walmart and I'm sticking with gnc

wow im so sorry i have no advice just jedi hugs

i am still pre op but i take nature made multi for her d3 b12 and calcium citrate every day and have so for a month

they have it for 40 for a 2lbs tub i just got the regular whey protein

i stand corrected on the cytomax the fruit ones are not the protein ones sorry about the misinformation. but i just bought some gnc 100% whey protein from gnc i am a member and right now its half off the membership is 15 bucks for a whole year and the tub is 2 and a half pounds for 24 bucks cant beat that ill let you guys know how it tastes when i get it

so i was looking to introduce protein shakes into my diet before my pre-op liquid phase because the nut wants me to get 60-80 grams a day and i went to the gnc website today and looked into a membership and its 15 bucks for the whole year one that is amazing because not only do they give you half off on whey protein but on like vitamins and suplaments and all sorts of good stuff. so i also ordered a tub of 100% whey protein in chocolate 2 pounds for 24 dollars yay

so i signed up for a gnc membership today its only 15 bucks for the whole year and right now members get half off the 100% whey protein and buy one get one 50% off protein powder i only ordered one but my total with taxes and everything was only 40 bucks for a 2 pound tub of whey protein powder in chocolate and i love chocolate

im 24 i havent had the surgery yet but im hoping to get a date sometime in march of next year

my nut says after surgery less that 60 grams of carbs a day i think

yay congrats go you

im on the 6 month diet program as well although i have a bmi of 50 with 3 comorbities so i qualify overwhelmingly i know it seems daunting all the hoops you have to jump through but it will be worth it

this made me smile im no where near my surgery date still have 5 nutrition classes to go but i think thats how my body will be also because i can tolerate food one day and the next my body is like girl are you trying to poison us back up it goes

i just started my 6 month as well the plan the nut put me on is 64 ounces of liquid a day no carbonated beverages no juice no fried foods no white starches and 60-80 grams of protein a day

i am worried about missing food but also i am worried about dying before i hit 30 so ill give up my favorite fast food if it means i get to live into my 60's
