I might try to make it too. I just barely started the process (ie went to the conference and am awaiting my first appt) But I know have a support "team" in place is always good ;)

Hey, Lacey!! That is the same group that did my sleeve on 1/23/13. Dr.Hamilton was my specific surgeon. It is a great practice and very helpful every step of the way. I live in Independence so not far:) Welcome!

Man, I hope all of you can come to meet each other on the 23rd. This is sounding like a great group!

I am planning on being there, sounds like fun:) I am excited to meet other people that have been though the same thing.

I only have a costco membership right now. No Sam's Club. I tried some other Protein Drink that was recommended (body by Vi ?) but I did not like it so I sold my bag to someone that uses it. I still am struggling to find a Protein drink that I like and that my sleeve likes! I plan on being at the meeting. Can't wait to see everyone again!

The body by vi ones gave me a headache (I have issues with sucralose/aspartame - going to be the hardest part of all this for me :( ). I have found a couple of Protein Shakes that don't have it in them. One I found at Walgreens (can't remember the name right now) and the it works ones. Hoping one of those tastes good after I'm done ;)

The only protein drink I have been able to tolerate is thd Premier Protein from costco and pure Protein drinks. I have a few different protein powders that I can't tolerate.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
