I hate protein shakes
My doctor tells his patients absolutely no genpro. He says he's done studies and patients that use it don't lose the weight. Iv never tried it so I don't know. They tried selling it to me at GNC but I wouldn't buy it. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Sleeve complication to a 19 year old
So sorry I hope she fully recovers . I wouldn't even consider converting the bypass to sleeve at this point. To many risk. Plus she's lost so much weight with the disease . Just focus on her staying healthy. Prayers Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

Thats a long time to be there. Why so long? Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using the BariatricPal App Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App I think the doctor went to the hospital or something it was crazy. We had group sessions all morning then after lunch waited hours to see the md individually to schedule.

Packing for Surgery
Cell phone charger, robe, socks, extra out fit ( and undies) to wear home. I ended up staying an extra day in the hospital. Soap , face wash, lotion, lip balm, deodorant tooth paste, hair brush and my own Protein shakes per my MD in case I didn't like the ones provided by the hospital. I took makeup because I always feel better when I make up my face and do my hair. I did that for the ride home. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
