of couse you should be scare, but trust God hands and you will be ok. the surgery itself for me was not a major thing just bring uncomfortable the first day, then day two and three was a piece of cake. the crew at the hospital I was were God sends. am loving every day that goes by with no regret. I have lost since surgery 36 pounds.

Thank you nervous my day is sept 10 at Lenox hospital I just hate that throw up feeling the first day and the way I won't be able to eat that I love. How and what do I eat when I go out with my friends or on dates. But still have to be cleared by my doctor I didn't pass the EKG so I have to see a cardiologist they said my left ventricle slightly enlarged

Remember this is a life changing tool, you will be able to eat what you want but smaller portion, just think you had spend all your life eating what you loved and that had bring you were you are now ! be patient and enjoy one day at a time... after surgery you would not feel hungry at all, so its like painless weight loss..

when you go out on dates and with friends you will be less expensive because you will not be able to finish a whole plate, with friends you can share an order or take a goody bag home! Youll be fine, just worry to recovery healthy and f

steady, drink your Protein and most importantly your Vitamins.

my soups are homemade which are better, but when my Protein intake are low my resource is Bariatric Choice, is an amazing website that is design for bariatric patients and high in protein. For example chicken Soup a box of seven $10.95 and has 15 grams of protein, they carry numerous variety.

I also, consume from them the hot chocolate which has 15 grams of protein an is delicious!

i drink muscle milk light 4 oz with 1 scoop of Zero carb Isopure unflavored powder which contains 39 grams of protein per scoop.

G2 from gatorade is great and plenty of Smart Water which contains electrolytes to avoid dehydration.

Is that very pricey because some websites take advantage because these are things we need to use? What about Vitamins and Calcium do we have to use those
