  2. I won’t miss worrying if I will be the fattest person at the party, fitting in to booths, getting leg cramps, sweating, huffing and puffing, shopping only online, edema, swollen ankles and feet, avoiding family gatherings, being 100lbs over my husband’s weight, hiding behind clothing .
  3. My surgeon was not worried about calories the first 4 weeks... he stressed water( 64 +) and 70grams of protein daily. I was on liquid diet for 4 weeks... averaged btween 250- 350 calories a day. Used isopure in bone broth and premier protein drinks.
