Yes. Try eating slower and chew more

When was your surgery ? You should be EXTREMELY proud to lose 78 lbs BEFORE surgery. That is great ! Don't worry about .2 lbs. Our body weight fluctuates all day. Good luck ! You're doing great !

July 9th for me! It was originally scheduled for mid-April but was canceled. I can't wait but nervous. First surgery ever in my 62 years.

Hello - Finally got my surgery date - 7/09 - Yeah !
Can you give me your recommendations on the best tasting Protein Powder with 25-30 gr of Protein per serving ?
Thanks in advance !

I'm having surgery at Northern Westchester Hospital. But will definitely be postponing. Like others have said - a hospital is not where you want to be right now.

I'm scheduled on 4/16 for Duodenal Switch surgery. I've just been reading up on everything I can on the procedure and this forum to help reduce anxiety. I have started buying chicken and beef broth and will try to have everything I need for the various diet stages.
Yes, I'm a little nervous too. The only surgery I've had is the removal of tonsils and that was 56 years ago lol. I watch too many medical TV shows and worry about complications during surgery.
Hang in there !

Hello - I'm having DS surgery mid to late April. I live alone in an in-law apartment in my son and daughter-in-law's home. Did anyone need any help from anyone in the initial healing process? They just had a baby so I don't want to be a burden to them too much.
So if you did need help - how often and with what? Thanks in advance for your help. This is a great forum!
