Unjury chicken is good! Tastes like creamy chicken Top Ramen. In a good way. (But I havent tried the Bariatric Pal yet.)

Bit of a swelly belly situation toward day’s end but otherwise not too bad. Bypass done on Mon the 11th. Getting a better sense of what my wee little pouch can hold. P.S. It ain’t much!!! 😂

Just got scheduled for 10/11 ... two weeks from today! Aiiieeee!!!!!

I gasped as I read this. How horrifying! I am so very sorry this happened. Please hang on. This is a huge devastation but you can get through it. Not over it. But through. You are in my thoughts.

Very encouraging! Thanks!

Thanks for the kind welcome, @BigSue. Yeah, right now 6 months feels like a long time away! My husband and I are doing this together, and he just had his first visit with the surgeon today, who told him not to lose too much weight beforehand. Gee, no one told ME that! 🤨 I can already tell that this is going to be a very different process for each of us.

I've been lurking here for a few weeks and figured it's time to introduce myself and say hi. I'm ONE DAY into my 6-months-of-weight-loss-program-before-surgery-gets approved plan. We're currently thinking sleeve unless the endoscopy next month says we shouldn't. I'm really grateful for all of the great info here!
