You can have mashed potatoes???

Well in the book that's considered cheating but my mom and my doctor said I can have that untill the 18 10 days before my surgery to get in the Protein diet phase.

No I can't but my doctor said I'm allowed just mashed potatoes until Monday cause that's my 10 day mark and it's helping me get into my diet

Hey! I am in Green Cove Springs, Florida but I am always in Jacksonville doing things. I would really love to find a support group around me so please pass on any information you have! I am having my VSG surgery this Friday the 29th.

I am traveling 5 hours away to Coral Springs to have the surgery done and that is why I would REALLY love to find a local group!

My surgery will be done at Memorial Hospital in Jacksonville on the 29th! The support groups are on Mondays. So if this hospital is closer, let me know. We can also have meet ups for a few if us and share tiny meals when our tummies are healed!

I'm in Orange Park. Just had my sleeve done on the 8th. I'm a lapband conversion, I'm down 16 pounds so far and feel great. I had Dr. Uchal at North Florida Surgeons do my surgery. I would love to get a group together to meet up, and have an informal group once a month.
