Oh i gave up trying to edit my post. Lol. i have my appt with surgeon on Thursday. Last Wednesday my Aunt died, and its been nothing but family gatherings and food. I weighed myself this morning to find an extra 6.5 pounds. Now i know my BP med has me retaining water, and my monthly friend is back again, but seriously. How do i go to my appt weighing more than i started this process with? I dont want him to tell me that he wont do the procedure. Not sure i would be handling that very well. Idk.

That is awesome! Congrats!

I've tried the grape flavor, it was tolerable. Just make sure its as cold as you can stand it.

So far that one is the only one i can swallow. Blech. Lol. Isopure grape isnt horrible, and its clear, just has to be really cold. Sent from my SPH-L710 using the BariatricPal App

I like the premier Protein shakes, 30 g for 160 calories. Not bad. I dont see my surgeon until the 7th, but have been trying out diff shakes. Sent from my SPH-L710 using the BariatricPal App

Oh man! How frustrating. I have Cigna too...now i am super worried! I have my appt with my surgen next Thursday. Idk what i will do if he has anything less than a surgery date for me! Sent from my SPH-L710 using the BariatricPal App

My story comes from a lonely afternoon. I am a single mom, 39, with 2 teenaged sons. My boys were off doing their own thing, and I decided that I didn't want to grow old alone. But I then began to realize at 350 pounds, I may not grow old at all! I talked with my doc last November, and started the dieticians mtgs. My last compliance checks are finally done. I will see my surgeon again on April 7th, a week after my 40th bday. I hope he gives me the best present of all-a surgery date! I am ready!

I finally have all compliances met, and go to meet with my surgeon on April 7. Crossing my fingers he sets a date and i can start the preop diet. Good luck everyone! Sent from my SPH-L710 using the BariatricPal App
