Any women in here 40+ planning to have children? I'm praying for my miracle baby, lost my 1st one had a Etopic pregnancy in 2001. After I have the surgery in January, how quick did you get pregnant? I heard you get very fertile. Should I start taking folic acid after?

Hey guys so this is my 3rd try at my surgery, 3rd is the charm. My surgery is scheduled for March 14th. I can't wait, I will be in my new home next week. No more excuses. I'm doing a no carb no sugar diet, I lost 4 pounds in the last 2 weeks. I'm hoping by March I will be 30 pounds less, the less incisions the less pain.

My surgery is scheduled for March 15th. I am not dieting yet, however.

March 5th here! I’ve been dieting as well. I’m down 17 pounds since my first visit with the nutritionist in October.

January 7th is my new surgery date! No ifs and butts, new apt or not I'm having it done. Anyone bringing in the New Year wanting to live a healthier and longer life?

Hi everyone I was supposed to have surgery next Monday the 7th, but my surgeon isn't accepting my Psychiatrist clearance, so I have to make a new appointment with a new Psychiatrist, which will be on January 3rd, has anyone went thru this? I also stopped doing my liquid diet as of today

@April Marie
sorry bud, total bummer🙁
surgery hopefully will be sooner than later.
even though surgery is postponed, don't go on an eating binge!!
you don't want to gain before WLS, than have to loose more.
good luck

Hey guys I'm currently on my 3rd day of my liquid diet and was wondering does anyone have a tip for good Protein Shakes? I'm doing the fusion powder ones where you add lactaid milk to it and it has been getting me sick and making my stomach hurt. I'm doing everything else with no problem, but it's the Protein. I'd appreciate it. T-minus 12 days til my surgery

I also like the variety of the Syntrax Nectar shakes. Love the lemonade. They sell a variety pack. I haven't seen them in stores, but I have bought it online. I also like Unjury chocolate and premier chocolate.
re: budget, just remember even if the powders seem expensive, you'll only be spending a couple dollars a meal, so it is still cheaper than most foods you'd eat before surgery. Good luck.
