So I did by the Unjury starter pack to try them all. But I think I will supplement the glucerna with the Unjury to vary it up. My sweet hubs is gonna do the Liquid Protein and veggies at night with me. So I can have Soup with chicken or fish or beef and veggies in blender. Oh she also told me no exercise during preop. I will be on the exact diet post op for 10 days.

I had the generic equivilent of prevpac because the brand name was over 300 dollars with excellent insurance. The generic cost me less than 20 bucks!

My insurance covers mine. did you have any side effects? Today was my first day taking it.

All along the Texas Mexico border including Ciudad Juarez. I highly recommend to dress down no jewelry no fancy stuff hundreds of innocent people have been killed in the cross fIre Don't wander off the main town. U might notice ghost towns since cartels have taken over. Be careful n best of luck

Hello October sleevers! How's everyone doing today? I'm feeling anxious and nerves are kicking in.... giving the pre op diet a trial run today. I'm not suppose to start mine till the 28th, but figured I would see how I do... so far so good... the real test will be after 4 p.m, cause that's when I usually start to get hungry!

I have to say I am excited and nervous! I got my size 14 Levis in mail today and I have to tell you, I cannot see fitting those. They look tiny! I am nervous about my pre-op diet. My hubs is taken me to dinner Friday. It is my favorite meal and restaurant in Bogota. I have pepper steak served with a side of tomatoes, red onions and blue cheese with a bit of olive oil and cracked pepper. Can't forget my glass of Argentina Malbec. So that will be my final "big" meal. Monday starts my real countdown.

Size 14??? What size are you now? I have an attic full of skinny clothes (size 14 the smallest) that are jeans and pullovers, no dated stuff with shoulderpads and peplums and such, lol. But i figure I may not get into them until next year. I am a size 2x and 20/22

Have 2 weeks to lose the other 7 prior to surgery. But I'm hoping to be down to 250 on my surgery day. I started at 280 :)

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
