Hello Fellow Oregon Sleevers!



Recommended Posts

Hello fellow Oregon sleevers!! So glad you joined this group! I was sleeved 2 weeks ago and have lost a total of 20 lbs so far including my preop diet of 6 days... Pretty exciting! I have had no complications with the exception of a few nuances here and there..... especially the one my daughter calls the "deer in headlight syndrome" after you eat something to fast and your eyes bug out and you can't talk for 5 minutes because your new tummy can't digest it that quickly!! So I was thinking about maybe starting a once a month meetup where we can all meet, chat, and support each other?!? We can maybe even do an activity?! Let me know if anyone's interested!

~ Sally :)

Wow. That is awesome!! I'm looking forward to the results, for sure. I have an arthritic knee that I am hoping will improve a lot with this.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
