  1. Thanks for the heads up, the good thing about this is I only have two friends who are also doing the surgery together with me. Friends ride together.. I guess that’s true. But I’ll take your words to heart.. the last thing I want is to end up with my same weight or worse in the hospital. Thank you! “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters.

  2. Wow sorry to hear that, I hope they find a reason to your foam troubles. I’m getting bypass soon, and I have read, this usually happens with certain food or certain amount of food, but I read you eat slow and wait to drink. I hope the pointer giving about will help out. Best of luck. “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  3. I’m 5’7 .. by following the chart my best weight would be 160. “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  4. I had mine done yesterday , and I ask her how would I know if everything is ok. She only said I’m gonna submit your paper work for your insurance and they’ll give you a response . I felt like “oh god now I’m gonna stress this out” no hint whatsoever !! [emoji30][emoji30] “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes.

  5. That’s messed up, but you know is wrong. So it’s a matter of a lil more wait. You will get your surgery. “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  6. I did it slowly... started by skipping a day, than two , than three and so on... now I don’t drink coffee . And I was a whole day coffee person. Like even before going to sleep... never affect my slumber. “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  7. Sorry to hear that , did they explained to you why? And maybe your hospital can fight it off. “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  8. Omg and this is where ? ... report their asses! That is a very bad experience for such a big surgery. I’m sorry you had to go through stuff like that, it happen with one of my surgery ( c section) but it was a particular nurse [emoji35]. “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  9. Omg , I have had one of those ... where I was waking up around that time to get to work, and would wake up while taking the train , wondering if I put on my shoes if I’m dressed or even if I close the door. When you tired your body might be awake but your brain is still snoring. But that’s life. My last visit to the doc is tomorrow YAY ME! And I’m so nervous cuz is the psychology one, and I heard someone people get denied their surgery cuz of the psychologist. [emoji30] wish me luck! “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  10. Congratulation! You doing great! “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  11. Nope , but I wish you the best of luck! Congratulation on your new journey! “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  12. Well , I don’t know personally that it will be the best decisions , but when I see family and friends who are now LIVING life out of the heavy fat that was pulling them down , than yes , I can’t help to believe that this will be the best decision I will make , mine is Nov 28... right now all my nervousness is about the “ I won’t wake up or feel anything during surgery” the rest is a process I gotta swallow up again after 2 c sections . ( I know is. It the same and it hurts more but it’s worth it.... i know it) “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  13. Welcome! And I have been wondering what happened to those at the beginning of the month , how did it go to them? Hope we hear from them soon! “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps

  16. Never knew premier had those. And that’s good to know. Soon I’ll start my liquid diet .. for two weeks, so I was looking for enough options to not fail, thanks for giving me new ones! [emoji1417] but also for my post op. “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  17. Oh oh ... gonna do that , thanks for the heads up. “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  18. Sounds great too. to buy... cuz I’m pretty bad with drinking protein shakes. Thank you for your advice! “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  19. Do it make you feel full? I have try meal replacement and after awhile .. they don’t help me fill full. “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  20. Ehhh sooo gonna check that out!! Thank you! “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  21. Congratulation! Wish you fast recovery!!! “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  22. I’m afraid of this so bad. I was doing supplemental meals shake .. by one month I was getting nauseas. Feal like after surgery it will be worse. “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  23. True. I don’t think there is any that helps reduce loose skin to be honest [emoji848] “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  24. I was also checking premier, I don’t have a Costco membership, I do have bj’s a lil more expensive. I was also checking muscle milk , cheaper but less gram of protein , so I was aiming for premier. How long have you been drinking it? Have you gotten tired of it? “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
  25. That’s my biggest fear .. I’m a bad drinker and I want something good enough for me to drink. Plus I want variety .. cuz I know I’m gonna get tired of the same protein shakes. Gonna check the one you mention. Thank you! “There will be obstacles. There will be doubters. There will be mistakes. But with hard work, there are no limits.” —Michael Phelps
