Lol Taylee,

Not really. I'm so confused because I read all kinds of stuff on here and my surgeons office hasn't gave me any specific list of things to purchase besides Protein shakes. I went to the market yesterday and bought sugar free Jello, chocolate whey Protein Shakes, & broth. I wonder about Vitamins and other things? I am going to take a look at my paper work from the nutritionist.

Yes, I'm happy that we are being sleeved the same day. Hopefully, we can help each other through this journey. I will be more then happy too :)

Denise ♡

Taylee,

Yes, I have a Facebook. Do you? :) The coordinator did say they have a Protein drink there for $60. My friend just had a gastric bypass but with the sleeve. I think it's dual something lol. She bought chewable Vitamins from Wal-Mart. I think I'll call my surgeons office tomorrow to verify what exactly she means by a Protein diet.

      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.

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
