Talk to your doctor. I started the program in oct. 2016. Surgery is next week

Hi everyone. I'm doing this journey alone. I've only told 3 people close to me about surgery. And none of them will be available to come to the hospital with me. I'm afraid I'm going to incredibly lonely and emotional post-op. Is anyone interested in chatting over the kik app (long term)? Looking for someone to offer mutual support on our journeys and share photos of our progress.

Hi! I just sent you a message on here

CONGRATS on the weight loss! What about freezing low fat yogurt? What's you favorite flavor? The whole point of surgery is to help with portion control and healthier choices. Try low fat ice cream/fro-yo or sugar free chocolate pudding for the cravings. I stopped craving chocolate milk since I started the nasty protein shakes. My surgery is in 2 days.

Pre op day 6. Down 7 pounds. I'm not even hungry. I have 1 scoop of powder mixed with 1/2 bottle of Mocha Light Starbucks drink twice a day. Plus lots of strained soups. Or the triple zero Danon yogurt with PB2 powder. I cheated on day one and ate a small dinner. The first 48 hrs were killer. Today I was tempted with donuts and cookies and easily passed them up. Surgery in 8 more days. Hoping for a new life.

Me too! I was dreading mine! But knowing my anesthesiologist will be the same for my surgery really puts my mind at ease. My scope was a breeze.

I'm 36 divorced mom of 2 young boys

I'm also going with the hernia repair surgery to my family. I told 1 friend, my bf and my ex husband

Best way to prep shakes? Right now I use 4oz milk + 1 scoop for 25g protein for my preop diet. I cannot guzzle 8oz of powder, yuk. So. . My question is, after surgery, I need 3 scoops + 12oz milk. Does anyone make the shake in the AM and drink throughout the day? Or do you mix a tsp in 1 Oz of milk every serving?

I'm having the sleeve 7/25. I searched protein soup on amazon. It has 15+ g of protein. Ordered it today, so can't validate the taste.

Day liquid diet day 4. Had my scope today. Went great. In at 630. Left by 9am. H pylori was negative. 10 more days.

Sent you a message. Mine are 5 and 6!

Does anyone want to start an accountability group or chat buddy? I only told my bf and ex husband and I'm sure they are tired of hearing my concerns, complaining and goals. I have kik or message me on here.

My bf and 1 over weight friend know. That's it. I see my parents almost daily, so this is going to be a challenge. I plan to tell them once I'm showing some results. I know if I discuss it beforehand they will not be supportive.

Well day 2 and I cheated but only small bites. I think I've had maybe 1/2 c of solid food in 48 hrs. Definitely not easy and I'm disappointed I can't stick to 100% liquid.

Hi all, I'm eating literally everything in my house the past few days so I'm not tempted when I start my 2 week liquids. Probably not the best idea, I know. Come tomorrow, it will be protein shakes and broth. Yum. Any one else with July surgery coming up? I'd love to chat on kik!

Me too! I start liquids tomorrow. Surgery date July 25!

I'm going in July 25th. Good luck to everyone and look forward to sharing all our stories!

Mine starts next month. Full liquids only. Ugh.

Help! What your favorite protein powder? Haven't heard great things for any of them, besides shakeolgy ($$$). Need it for tomorrow's appointment!

4 days

Insurance approved me in 4 days! Surgery was going to be in June, but I postponed it to 7/25 due to vacation plans. I'm so nervous!
