The A-ha moment!
That moment after surgery when you feel like you're finally done and accomplished your goal, only to realize 5 seconds later that you still have to lose the weight now. I had the gastric sleeve. SW 238, SW 203 Just had surgery on June 21st, feeling great, hardly any pain at all, didn't need any pain meds at all Friday night and really feeling great on Saturday. Having problems learning to sip drinks but I'm getting there. Sent from my N9519 using BariatricPal mobile app

Suggestions/tips
I used premiere protein shakes before surgery and Atkins shakes for my prop diet, I would put nutmeg and cinnamon in the vanilla shake with a little splenda, tastes just like eggnog. I got some baby foods like sweet potatoes, a little peaches but most of all we just need to use these until we can eat regular foods and then we just need to always remember protein. You can purchase "six star protein powder unflavored you can put into yogurt, drinks they sell it at Wal- mart. Its also good in SF, FF, Pudding. Sent from my N9519 using BariatricPal mobile app

Anyone in Texas?
Your Dr will decide what surgery you should get because I take medicine for bipolar so I can't have the bypass because it won't let my stomach absorb the medicines I need. Sent from my N9519 using BariatricPal mobile app

Pre Surgery Liquid Diet
I still don't understand how anyone can get down five shakes a day they are filling. The most I've gotten down is three, thank God I'm having sleeve done on the 21st. I'm still lucky I only needed 7days of liquid diet. Wednesday will be here in the blink of an eye, actually 4 days and a wake up!! Sent from my N9519 using BariatricPal mobile app

Time to do this
Well you already have a good mind set, just make sure you get all your tests done and all nutrition classes done and make the decision to stick to the program. No one is perfect so there will be mistakes just learn from them and move on. Sent from my N9519 using BariatricPal mobile app
