AnnaWallace got a reaction from ProudGrammy in How did your family and friends react?
I thought about keeping it a secret and did until about half way through the process until I really thought about it and decided I really didn't care what others opinions were on the matter because I am doing this for me, not for them. Now I have a Facebook page that I invite everyone too. Surprisingly enough everyone has been very supportive. I have no shame in what I am doing for myself, you shouldn't either!

AnnaWallace got a reaction from Alpaca55 in When do you start losing weight?
I didn't lose anything the first week really. In fact, I came out of the hospital weighing 10 pounds heavier after 48 hours of IV fluids, Pepcid and protonix. It took several days to get rid of the excess Fluid. I'm 2 weeks post op today and the scale is finally moving in the right direction. I've lost just over 8lbs since surgery

AnnaWallace got a reaction from Bari_KS in Don't recommend BVSA
The corporate lady just called and my surgery is back on for tomorrow! They added me in at the end of the day so I guess Dr. Joseph is going to work late. Prayers for sanity are much appreciated!!

AnnaWallace got a reaction from bogglesauce in Help, I'm hungry AGAIN!
Look up Dr. Duc Vuong on YouTube. He is a world renowned bariatric surgeon who puts out tons of helpful videos. He is my mentor. Check out the Dr. V diet!

AnnaWallace got a reaction from CyndieRI in Jealousy?
I dont think you are being irrational at all and you are most definitely NOT a loser. It is she that should be jealous of you and your self control cause she obviously has none and in the end that is going to come back and bite her in the ass. And for those people commenting, ignore them. They have no idea how differently people lose and this isn't their journey. They will never understand. You just keep doing the right thing and in the end it will be you who has the success!

AnnaWallace got a reaction from jbecca73 in Protein Shakes
I love the Bariatric fusion Meal Replacement shakes. They have some great flavors to choose from and they dont leave a funky after taste when you're done. My other favorite is the nectar drinks, especially the caribbean cooler (tastes like a Pina Colada) and my favorite, Fuzzy Navel! They also have a BariatricPal hot chocolate Protein Drink with mini marshmallows that is the BOMB!!

AnnaWallace got a reaction from HoneyBeBrave in Everything tastes gross! Help!
I'm not post-op but I dont tolerate most Protein Shakes or waters due to the taste and after taste. I have found a few things with Protein that I do like from Bariatricpal.com Try the nectar fruity drinks like the caribbean cooler, Fuzzy Navel, the Bariatric Fusion Meal Replacements like the Red velvet, Orange Cream, chocolate Peanut Butter. I also ordered the hot chocolate with mini marshmallows. It's a Protein Drink but it tastes just like real hot cocoa. Good luck!
